	What about international players?

	tcr:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 14:44 GMT		1 point
	There are several international players such as Nowitzki who never went to college, you should probably include them too

	LoneStarDown:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 16:57 GMT		2 points
	I will be researching for foreign players too.

	I don't understand why the title says 'non-international' players, but then you include Dirk and AK47

	I was editing it just when you commented. Thanks. it's fixed.

	Stojakovic? Divac? Ilgauskas?

	cubscardinals:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 20:10 GMT		0 points
	you really had to call him AK47?

	LoneStarDown:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 20:38 GMT		3 points
	thank you all for the corrections. I meant to first do only non-international players. But didn't put it in the title, so I just added the ones I know from memory.

	johnlk:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 22:56 GMT		8 points
	Surely it is not actually unknown where these international players went to school, it's just that you don't know it.

	Tavel:	Jun 5th, 2010 at 23:00 GMT		0 points
	You should say you are including international players.

	LoneStarDown:	Jun 6th, 2010 at 00:56 GMT		2 points
	@ tavel. it says that the + denotes international players in the notes. @johnlk- I looked for the high schools on their wikipedias and basketball reference. they weren't listed, just the club teams that they played before being drifted. sorry that i didn't do further research other than that.

	garnett went back to college to get a degree.

	Good quiz. Ilgauskas was drafted in 1997, not 1996.

	LoneStarDown:	Jun 7th, 2010 at 01:36 GMT		3 points
	He didn't,t play till 97. He got injured. He was drafted in 96 as the 20th overall.

	I would change the wording in the title to separate "playing experience" from college basketball experience. This would solve the Shawn Kemp problem because he was actually on a college basketball team, he just never played a game.

	is it really "unknown" where these internationals went to high school? seems like a quick google search ought to turn up that info.

	Golden:	Jun 10th, 2010 at 23:36 GMT		4 points
	@ispep - you are mistaken. For now.

	jweller24:	Jun 2nd, 2011 at 19:18 GMT		-3 points
	most of these players are from a Different country

	Where's Eddy Curry and Darko?

	Sixtytwobobs:	Jun 25th, 2011 at 21:17 GMT		1 point
	I'm pretty sure Stojakovic played college ball in Serbia, so I don't think he should count. Or you should specify that only American Universities are included.

	@adamchappelle: They never made All-Star teams

	Josh Smith deserves to be an all-star at some point. If he had any outside game we would have been one multiple times by now.

	Kahlvin:	Dec 21st, 2012 at 17:30 GMT		1 point
	I suppose Bynum and Marc Gasol deserve to be on here now.
