    Can Canada be considered a city? Because not a lot of ballers come out of here whatsoever. Hell our whole population is pretty much equal to the state of California anyways.

    Steve Nash-Victoria, BC
    Jamaal Magloire-Toronto, ON
    Todd Macullough-No idea but he's from Canada for sure.

    You forgot Bob Cousy NYC. He is from downtown, Manhattan I think. And the point guard Mark Jackson is from Brooklyn but he went to Achibishop High just like Kenny Anderson. Also Andre Barrett is NYC product as well if that means much. And even tho Christian Laetnier flopped in the NBA he is still one of the greater college players of all-time, he is from upstate NY. And Pearl Washington but he is known as more of a high school legend to many but he is from BK. Connie Hawkins is a playground & NBA legend from BK as well.

    BTW, I dont think the Center Marc Jackson is from here, I remember hearing during a 6ers game that he was grom Philly, but dont quote me on that.
