FIBA All-Star Games were all-star exhibition games, which were also known as "FIBA Festivals". The European selections won most of the games, with an overall record of 24-5. Besides talent, diversity was also paramount in the selection process, which aimed at allowing several different European basketball schools to be represented.
Famous quotes containing the word games:
“Criticism occupies the lowest place in the literary hierarchy: as regards form, almost always; and as regards moral value, incontestably. It comes after rhyming games and acrostics, which at least require a certain inventiveness.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
