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:
“As long as lightly all their livelong sessions,
Like a yardful of schoolboys out at recess
Before their plays and games were organized,
They yelling mix tag, hide-and-seek, hopscotch,
And leapfrog in each other’s way all’s well.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
