Title: Build an all-international roster
Post by: Bucketgetter on August 08, 2017, 02:08:47 PM

Saw this on CBS Sports, thought it was a pretty fun game. The rules are you have to build a 10 player roster with all 10 players being from 10 different countries. Here is my team -

PG - Goran Dragic (Slovenia) / Dennis Schroder (Germany)
SG - Nic Batum (France) / Manu (Argentina)
SF - Lebron (USA) / Andrew Wiggins (Canada)
PF - Giannis (Greece) / Nikola Jokic (Serbia)
C  - Marc Gasol (Spain) / Al Horford (Dominican Republic)

My long wingspan team:

Dragic (Slovenia)
Giannis (Greece)
Simmons (Australia)
Durant (US)
Porzingas (Latvia)

That'd be a fun team to watch.
