Following a bronze medal win at the 2023 FIBA World Cup and securing a spot in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the excitement and interest in Canadian basketball has reached an all-time high, like Canada’s international ranking and official count of NBA players.
Led by a balanced roster of unsung heroes, from the qualification rounds to the podium, it was Canada’s NBA players who rose to the occasion when it mattered most and delivered this generations’ thriller in Manila against the world’s best.
Putting aside their NBA jersey colours, eight Canadian NBA players made up the core of the strongest international roster that Canada has ever put together for a FIBA sanctioned competition.
That is, until next summer, it is anticipated, but unlikely, that Canada will roll out an all-NBA lineup that could make a push for another podium finish.
But before all of that, we have an entire NBA season to get through and a lot of stats, facts and records to track, analyze and visualize.
Now in its fourth edition, the BasketballBuzz Canadian NBA stats tracker has become a unique and valuable resource that delivers all the stats you need and want including per game, totals and advanced statistics all wrapped-up with beautiful interactive charts.
Go beyond the traditional box score stats and track points by position, draft year, draft round, minutes by draft round, production by team college and high schools.
