Data from 1446 players between 2002\u20132003 and 2011\u20132012 seasons were considered. We considered information about each player, including country, the number of games played, and performance index rating (PIR). We tracked the players\u2019 highest club level attained in their adult careers. We used a multilevel ordinal regression with a cumulative model in a fully Bayesian framework to examine the probability of the players playing in the NGT attaining the NBA, Euroleague, or Eurocup. Furthermore, we explored in the model if PIR in the NGT was a relevant predictor of achieving the highest club level in adult careers. From the total sample, only a very small percentage attain the NBA (20 in 1446, 1.4%), Euroleague (103 in 1446, 7.2%), and Eurocup (60 in 1446, 4.2%). The results highlight that a very small number of players with a very high PIR per game in the NGT had a higher chance to play in the NBA, Euroleague, or Eurocup. The probability of attainment of NBA and Euroleague for the population of highly selected basketball players playing the under-18 NGT in the first 10 years of the NGT was small. Hence, caution is warranted when assuming the effectiveness of current talent development models, even at the late stages of young players\u2019 development, often labelled as young elite players. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/17479541221116881","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,9]],"date-time":"2022-08-09T08:07:33Z","timestamp":1660032453000},"page":"523-531","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Participation in the under-18 Euroleague Next Generation Tournament does not predict attaining NBA, Euroleague, or Eurocup"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2855-0296","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Humberto M","family":"Carvalho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, School of Sports, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florian\u00f3polis, Santa Catarina, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Cristiano Z","family":"Morais","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, School of Sports, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florian\u00f3polis, Santa Catarina, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Ahlan B","family":"Lima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, School of Sports, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florian\u00f3polis, Santa Catarina, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Luciano G","family":"Galv\u00e3o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, School of Sports, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florian\u00f3polis, Santa Catarina, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Bernard","family":"Grosgeorge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"P\u00f4le France Basketball Yvan Mainini, French Basketball Federation, Paris, France"}]},{"given":"Carlos E","family":"Gon\u00e7alves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sports Science and Physical Education, University of Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,9]]},"reference":[{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"bibr1-17479541221116881","DOI":"10.1260\/1747-9541.10.6.1103"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"bibr2-17479541221116881","DOI":"10.1080\/17461391.2014.982204"},{"unstructured":"Euroleague Basketball.
