Notes on the table: The order of allocation is documented in the "Sequence" column. The contents of the columns “Date” and “Place” also relate to the official award of the award by FIBA. The spelling of the names, like all other data documented in the list, was basically adopted unchanged from the FIBA ​​documents. The documentation of titles was omitted in accordance with the conventions of the free encyclopedia Wikipedia. The nationality of the named personalities does not have to correspond to the named nation in each individual case. All five columns have a sort function. It should be noted that umlauts are specifically taken into account in an A-to-Z sorting. The "FIBA Zone" column was added to enable a "distribution analysis".
