Tiivistelmä: | An empirical study on star status in professional sport is featured in this article. Data from the National Basketball Association (NBA) from the period of 1987-2008 is used to measure star status by the number and share of all-star votes. It is found that the athlete's individual performance has a large impact on his star status, although it's not the only factor. Winning a championship greatly boosts the popularity as well as the team the athlete plays in. Good team performance and star teammates both have a positive effect on popularity. Despite this, switching from a losing team to a winning team can be risky for new stars. |
