As another year has passed, we are back with an addition to our previous list of the greatest international basketball players ever.
With so much foreign talent dominating in the league right now, this ranking sees massive changes every offseason. Nikola Jokic is close to entering the international GOAT discussion, Luka Doncic has cracked the Top 10 at just 25, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to skyrocket up the rankings.
Just like with our HoopsHype78 list, we compiled votes from our staff, removed the highest and lowest rank for each player and awarded points 78-1 for the rest.
As always, we factored in FIBA accomplishments to an extent but put way more stock on what players did while competing against the very best (that is, in the NBA). And, of course, the focus is on what they achieved and not what they could have done if A, B or C had happened.
