        Dual citizenship. As you can see in the article, all international players are named with their respective countries next to them. Ibaka: Congo. Mirotic: Montenegro.

        Find me a photo of them playing for Montenegro or Congo. Or even in the league of those countries...

        Well I don't have pics of Serge's childhood but he lived in Congo til he was 17 (and played ball as a kid there). Same thing goes for Mirotic. Grew up in Montenegro and went to play in Spain as a young teen, not seeing your point, sorry

        Is Olajuwon not Nigerian? Is Dikembe not Congolese? Is Dirk not German?

        Olajuwon played for the USA so regarding basketball he should be listed as American. With Dirk there's no question, he only holds one nationality and plays for Germany. He is German. It's not so difficult to understand, just look at Ibaka's outfit when he plays internationally.pic.twitter.com/9iHePKeFGF

        NBA cares about where you were born and raised, not the country you represent. Which is why they still call Ibaka Congolese instead of Spanish.

        Irving grew up in the states and yet they call him Australian. The list is just ridiculous, but I guess it helps them boost their numbers.
