BIG Lie We've Been Told in Overseas Basketball
Would you say Hong Kong A2 is better than Vietnam or Thailand?
@@eurohoops8443 I’d put it above Thailand for sure. Thailand is seen as a starter league there. Vietnam and the VBA…I’d put it above. If it was HKA1 then I’d say it’s above Vietnam.
What countries do you recommend for college basketball?
I played mid major D1 and was a starter both my junior and senior seasons averaging 4pts 4 rebounds in 13 minutes my senior year. I know my stats weren’t the best the but I was an elite shot blocker and did the things that didn’t show on the stat sheet like setting good screens, help defence, calling out screen etc. Our leading scorers were both guards who took most of the shots on the team no shade they were all conference players. During my senior year an agent messaged me on Facebook and arranged tryouts for a few teams in France. I ended up signing with a team in Calais for 1400 euros a month + rent + utilities etc but no car. The team played in the nm2 which is in the 4th division in France. It was a rough year. My coach/ teammates weren’t happy with my level of production and I’d often get into early foul trouble which limited my minutes like in college. I was told that the American import big man who was there before me scored more points but was lazy on defence which I understand now because he was probably being savy an trying not to pick up fouls which would limit his minutes but didn’t understand this at the time. I also hadn’t learned how to pace myself and was going all out offence and defence which means I’d get tired quicker and would ask for a sub when I was tired. Long story short I have a UK passport and have played for a few other team in the UK since that time but the most money I every made playing was €1400/month It’s like you said, supply and demand. When you have countless Americans and other imports willing play for £200 a month team will always lowball players in lower leagues because supply is high I’m now 35 and it’s been a struggle to adjust to life after basketball. I’m unemployed, no money, single and trying to get my life on track Looking back I wish content like this was available in 2014 when I turn pro
@@alhajifullah5212 man - sorry to hear. Head up! It can definitely be an adjustment period to life after ball. Have you tried coaching a bit to still be around the game + make money while you search for your next career?
So Funny , I Like , keep going 😂😂

what’s your advice on a guy that wants to play overseas i’m american and 23 years old and play one year of juco
@@mrhitsjr4775 do you still have any college year of eligibility left? What are your passports and stats at the JUCO level?
yes i have some college eligibility left and i have lights i averaged 9 in juco and no passports
what should i do?
@@mrhitsjr4775 I would keep on building at the college level. - Get stats - Better film - Try to level up from JUCO - Network everyday
thanks bro ok
Played in the western region of the NBL1 recently in my 2nd year (in my 3rd year currently overseas) and everything you said about it is spot on. It’s by far the best league/ my favorite league I played in thus far in my overseas career. Would love to participate in again some day
Super fast-paced conference and really quality play too! Glad to hear you liked it out there.
Felt like I was in the best shape of my life as a big
currently trying to understand the eurobasket website before subscribing to it... so i actually already appear on the site via name search (which i had no idea of until now) under the aba team i play for, but i have no media, stats, or any further info about myself connected to my name. So does me creating an account/subscribing grant me the ownership of my player profile or what? or how does it work? thank you in advance for any help you offer!
@@chadhendrickii great question! And I believe they actually need to have a writer do it on their end to make edits to your profile. I think with the subscription you get more access to teams, coaches, job openings etc.

Hey Jose, I was wondering if you have any insights on where I could get players looking for an agent firm to represent them?
@@danielkwach3458 just to clarify - you are an agent looking for players? Or you’re a player looking for an agency? I didn’t understand.
Sorry about that. I work at an agency looking for players
@@danielkwach3458 If I had an agency I’d basically go after players who were dual citizenships (two passports) and who weren’t as highly recruited (non NCAA D1 players) if I didn’t have many connections to start with.
Thank you so much Jose👍🏾
Hey brother do they have try outs for those teams on the bottom row? going to El Salvador soon and didn’t go to college for basketball kinda always wanted to go overseas
@@NorlanRivera-t8i Brujos typically does have open tryouts! But they are in- season right now so they won’t be happening for a while. I believe Tecla may have had some too. When are you going?
I was gonna go in December when are there try outs held?
@@NorlanRivera-t8i maybe January/February for next season. Follow all the clubs on social media and stay up to date.
Alright man thanks are they on Instagram or somthing ? Facebook? Would it be LMB or do I have to search up their names

What academies are legit?
@@peytonmclaurin EuroProBasket has the best reputation in the game. It is expensive though.
Jose, do a video on overseas players who played in college, whats the percentage of them think that if they play longer, practice, do they think they can still make the nba? Im sure some players still play for little money to hopefully improve their game, if they quit and work a normal job, they have no shot of the nba anymore, and all of their talents go to waste. There has to be a point where no matter how hard you practice , you can never make the nba, even if you have nba size for your position, and played d1
@@wl6020 there’s a ton of people who have failed to make it the league! And yeah there basically is a certain age or point in your career where it’s no long we realistic. Unfortunately I think that number is much earlier now since the NBA has gotten so much younger.
Well as a 5'6 unatheltic guy, i still had nba dreams in high school even though i never came close to making it to jv. I had dreams where i grow a foot and magically can shoot. Jamario moon came into the league at 26, but do overseas players still think they can improve, and make it to the nba at 35? I mean there is a certain amount of length in a runway, but if i was an overseas player i might think if i keep on practicing, i might shoot like steph curry. My prime was in high school, i practiced and played basketball in my 20's. Never got any better.
@@wl6020 Nah - I would say after 30-32 most players know they won't make the NBA. At that point they are either playing for the 1. Love of the game 2. Paycheque or 3. Don't know anything else in life. There's nothing wrong with playing well into your 30s as a player though. At the end of the day, you're hooping and getting paid to play a game. Doesn't get much better than that.

Everthing you are saying happens when you have terrible representation and you are really discounting the mental of a D1 player
Many players don't even have representation to begin with lol. But I've also seen this happen plenty with people who were also represented. It provides some safeguarding but it is not absolute.
