Superbasket Magazine is an Italian magazine dedicated to the coverage of European and world basketball. It was first published in 1979, being one of the oldest basketball publications in Europe.[1]

History and profile

Superbasket Magazine was founded by Aldo Giordani in 1979.[2] Every year of its existence until 2010, a panel of its journalists delivered the Mister Europa Player of the Year Award, which was based on European players' performances with their sport clubs and national teams.[3]

The magazine was headquartered in Milan until 1992 when it was moved to Bologna.[2]

Due to financial issues, it had to shut down its publication from February 2012 to March 2014, when a monthly online version was introduced.
