On April 7, 2026, in Luleå, Sweden, BC Luleå player Tobias Sjöberg reportedly commented on changes in basketball, stating that classic centers have largely disappeared but some remain. According to unconfirmed reports, he said, "Ännu har inte kometen slagit ned" (translated as "The comet hasn't hit yet"). The sources indicate that a trend toward more three-point shots and faster play began in the late 1990s, became clear around 2009-2010, and flourished with the Golden State Warriors NBA dynasty five to six years later, driven by statistics showing three-pointers are more efficient than long two-pointers.
