10 current international players all from different countries. Do towns and Irving count, I'm gonna say no.

Dragic / Batum / Giannis / Porzingis / P. Gasol
Vasquez / Booker / Wiggins / Mirotic / Biyambo

Okay, maybe Vasquez is more of a 3rd/4th team, but it was best I could come up with.
The Charlotte Hornets will win their first round series against the Boston Celtics in the 2021 Playoffs

Schröder - Thompson - Antetokounmpo - Saric - Embiid
Dragic - Sefolosha - Wiggins - Horford - Gobert

Coach : Messina

Hard to leave Jokic, Adams, Bogut, Simmons, Kuzminkas, Gasol (M), Rubio etc. but i think this is the most balanced team i can find.

76'rs could be the next Spurs international player wise if all works well at least if simmons reach his potential (and plays a full season).
