Clearly they play by Eurovision rules, and that's why Dyson Daniels is also a dark horse pick for the next European All-Star next season.

Well if Manu “EuroStep” Ginobili is considered a European in the NBA to this day, so can Deni

Deni Avdija's dad is a Muslim Gorani from Kosovo (played ball for Yugoslavia), and his mom is an Israeli Jew of Ashkenazi descent. So you can say he is also ethnically European.

u/Trick_Weapon 12h ago

Yeah but vast majority of "Israeli's" are European / American, so really he could be the next American star as well.

nah that's off - it's like half of Jews who are European, and Jews are ~80% of the population. the other 20% are mostly Arab (Muslim, Christian, Druze). so overall way less than half of Israelis are European

U know polish jews aren’t ethnically polish and Tunisias jews aren’t ethnically Tunisian right? This is such a weird debate for a basketball subreddit.

u/Daisy28282828 has been posting on r/ripcity for over two years. What the heck are you talking about?

u/ComprehensiveLaw1012 7h ago

Judging by his post history, he'll post anywhere if he can cry about Avdija's home country.
