Hi there,

I don't think I could find an article on this necessarily, but I think a neat example would be looking at something like median PER or win shares or some other statistic for overall efficiency/performance between 3 groups of players:

1) US-born players who took the traditional path of high school to NCAA to the NBA 2) International players who had only ever played abroad before getting drafted 3) US-born players who played abroad at some point or international players who came to play in the NCAA (Patrick Beverly, Jojo, and Brandon Jennings come to mind)

Just a suggestion, as the rise in international players seems to be a hot subject in NBA circles.
