Why Do NBA Players Go Overseas? 🏀 Overseas Basketball is becoming a more viable option every year! Nowadays, there’s more accessibility through: ▪️Pro basketball leagues ▪️Added media coverage ▪️Social media exposure And even the best are noticing. In 2023, a ton of high-profile NBA players signed Overseas contracts, including: Demarcus Cousins 🇵🇷 Brandon Knight 🇵🇷 Dwight Howard 🇹🇼 Jeremy Lin 🇹🇼 Denzel Valentine 🇦🇺 Thon Maker 🇰🇼 You’ll notice none of these were high-level Europe or China. That shows the market is expanding and players are considering other regions! In 2024, I predict more strategic signings will happen with personal brands in mind. #overseasbasketball #basketball #basketballplayer #fiba #hoops #nba

The BSN or Puerto Rico Basketball League is coming back strong. Is noteworthy to mention that in the 1960’s thorugh 1990’s the BSN was one of the top leagues in the world, and even NBA referees spend their summers in Puerto Rico after the conclusion of the NBA finals. Referees such as Jack Nies, Ted Bernhardt, and Mike Mathis spent decades and even own property in the island. Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the island, by having the honor of the very first NBA Latino player in history to Win a NBA championship and coming from my hometown of Santurce, Puerto Rico👍💪🇵🇷🏀⛹️♂️

You forgot Kemba Walker 😀 A clever move to Monaco. No more playing time in NBA due to his injury but a signing with a European team that let him time to recover and go back to the game without putting too much pressure on him. Playing only in Euroleague for the moment (no appearance in French League) and getting more and more like the ... former Kemba Walker.

Agree - just look at how Marbury and Jimmer Fredette did in China. You don't have to be famous in the NBA, but you need to be methodical about brand and building an audience. If you learn how to speak Mandarin, you can earn a lot more money than an average NBA salary if you plan out brand, products and endorsements.
