International players
Summarize
Perspective
In the National Basketball Association (NBA), foreign players—also known as international players—are those who were born outside of the United States. Players who were born in U.S. overseas territories, such as Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam, are considered international players even if they are U.S. citizens.[457][458][459][460] In some borderline cases, the NBA takes into consideration whether a player desires to be identified as international.[457] The first foreign-born player in franchise history is Bobby Croft. Croft, who was the first Canadian player to earn a scholarship to a major U.S. basketball college,[461] played one season for the Texas Chaparrals in the ABA.
In the 1997 draft, the Spurs drafted Tim Duncan who was born in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Although Duncan is a United States citizen,[462] the NBA considers him an international player.[463] In the 1999 and 2001 draft, the Spurs drafted Manu Ginóbili from Argentina and Tony Parker from France respectively. These three international players, Duncan, Ginóbili and Parker, played together from 2002 until Duncan's retirement in 2016, became All-Stars and led the Spurs to four NBA titles. Aside from the "Big Three" of Duncan, Ginóbili and Parker, the number of international players in the Spurs roster also grew in the 2000s.[464][465] On the opening day of the 2013–14 season, the Spurs set the record for the most international players on a team roster with ten international players from seven countries.[466]
The following is a list of international players who have played for the Spurs, listed by their national team affiliation.
