At the beginning of the NBA season last night, the league boasted 83 foreign-born players, from 37 different countries on opening day rosters.

The 83 players ties the record for the most international players set in 2006-07.

The Milwaukee Bucks’ fifteen player-roster (both active and inactive) features a league-high seven international players.

The Bucks’ roster has Aussie Andrew Bogut, Carlos Delfino (Argentina), Francisco Elson and Dan Gadzuric, both of the Netherlands, Ersan İlyasova (Turkey), Luc Mbah a Moute (Cameroon), and Roko Ukić (Croatia).

The Bucks also feature rookie Brandon Jennings, who spent last season playing in the Euroleague, as well as Joe Alexander, who was born in Koushing, Taiwan, spent significant time in Asia growing up, and is nearly fluent in Mandarin.

Twenty-seven of the 30 teams have at least one international player. The Charlotte Bobcats, Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors each have five international players,

The Los Angeles Clippers join the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers as the only NBA teams with no international players. Boston and Indiana continue their lack of international diversity with zero foreign-born players on their 15-player rosters.

The country with the most NBA players this season? It’s France. The French have the strongest representation with a record 10 players on NBA rosters; Alexis Ajinca, Nicolas Batum, Rodrigue Beaubois, Boris Diaw, Yakhouba Diawara, Ian Mahinmi, Tony Parker, Johan Petro, Mickaël Piétrus, and Rony Turiaf.

In comparison, during the 1999-2000 NBA season, the NBA had only 36 international players from 24 countries and territories.
