[@a.e.a.]

This has nothing to do with race but rather with watchability and market size. You’re right about the American aspect tho. An ordinary NBA-fan who only watches highlights and important games will always prefer insanely athletic or flashy players over fundamentally sound ones who score in the post or on the FT line. Also it is easier to market American guys to a American audience.
