Once again, the FIba AmeriCup aired exclusively on DirecTV, which most Uruguayans don't have, including myself.

How is the development of basketball going in Uruguay?

Uruguayan basketball is absolutely pathetic.

 

There's only two professional clubs outside Montevideo (Urupan and Lagomar). Most professional clubs don't have a proper youth team, and spend the benefactor (likely laundering) budget in paying returnees and foreign players.

 

Coaches are completely outdated.

 

All club "arenas" except Biguá lack floor heating, so they can't be used when it rains. The federation currently doesn't have a training center.

 

Ticket sales are minimal except for playoffs. The Antel Arena holds barely any matches, as rental is about US$ 40,000 per day, four times as much as the Estadio Centenario charges football clubs.

 

Worst of all, barra bravas are more violent than ever, to the point that Nacional and Peñarol ultras banned from football find a second home in basketball.
