The best player in the NBA has been American forever. But since Giannis took over, the best player has not been American. The up and coming players with the potential to take the throne (Luka, Wemby) aren’t American either.

Why do you think this is the case? Who will be the next American player to become the best player in the NBA?

People in the youth basketball world talk about it all the time.

Youth basketball has become so much about money, and making a kid into a star that they can profit off of, a lot of kids don’t even get a chance to become good in the AAU system. The kids whose parents pay the most money and have the physical gifts early get priority.
