Will an Asian guard ever make the NBA?

[QUOTE=GOBB]I cant find an African guard that developed in the NBA either. Basically Forwards and Centers. Wonder if most choose soccer over bball or the same situation like Asia (as mentioned by JtoIzzo).[/QUOTE]
I think the soccer reason, along with the poor coaching, and the probable lack of places to train are all part of the overall picture. That's changing, though. You have Sam Vincent as the coach of the Nigerian national team. If anyone would know how to develop guards to play in the League, it would be him.

isnt luol deng african, i think he was born in the UK but hes parents are from sudan

His name is Jeremy Lin.

[QUOTE=nikiboi]He may not be a pure asian but Raymond Townsend, NBA point guard; the Golden State Warriors made him the first Filipino-American ever to be drafted in the first round of the NBA Draft[/QUOTE]


The Philippines also have 4 Fil-American players who are playing in the NCAA Division I tournament right now.
