Premises: This paper makes a significant contribution to developing a database regarding players’ behaviour during competition. Also, by processing, analyzing and valorizing the available information and resources, the aim is to know the players better and to give full support to the coach so that he can make objective decisions. Subject of research: The research was conducted on six players, 3 foreigners and 3 Romanians, members of U-BT Cluj-Napoca basketball team, who competed in 2016/2017 in the Romanian Cup competition. Method: The relevant published literature was a major reference point for documenting this paper. The gathering of data was done by observing and registering basketball specific parameters. The processing of data was done using the statistical-mathematical method. Hypothesis: The study and acknowledgement of the players’ behaviour during matches offers premises and foundations for the coach’s activity and decisions. Comparing players’ results and achievements leads to a better understanding and ranking of the players’ contribution and role within the team’s assembly mechanism, necessary in the decision making process. Results: In what follows, a comparison will be drawn analyzing the main parameters defining foreign players as compared to Romanian players, taking in consideration: shots, offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds, steals, blocks, decisive pass, stolen balls, scored points. The purpose of this study is to sketch a comparative model of the foreign players’ behaviour during games compared to the Romanians’ game behaviour. Conclusions: Observing, registering, analyzing and processing game related data gives the coach objective information regarding players and overall team evolution, enabling him to make better decisions. The conclusions of the study show that, in most of the cases, the foreign players perform better. Thus, they add value to the team.
