Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine whether there are statistically significant differences in the situational efficiency parameters between domestic (ex YU) and foreign (out of ex YU) basketball players, the players of the Adriatic Basketball League (ABA League) in the 2018/19 season. The study analyzed 20 parameters of situational efficiency. Using Mann–Whitney U test, it was found that there are statistically significant differences among the basketball players in 7 of the 20 analyzed variables. Players foreigners statistically significantly more lose and win the ball, hit and miss the 2- pointshot and more often block the opponent's shot. Based on the differences, it was concluded that the players foreigners are, much more in contact with the ball than the domestic players. The general conclusion is that the basketball game in the ABA League for the 2018/19 season was focused on players foreigners, which could have a certain impact on the affirmation of players from the former Yugoslavia.
