I'm not from Cordoba, but I'll try to give it a shot answering your question.
I believe that most of the media here points out where do the players come from in their articles, specially when they are not from Buenos Aires. When it's about basketball, you'll read a lot of times Bahía Blanca, Cordoba and the province of Santa Fé, which are some of the most basketball fanatic cities/regions in the country. Specially Bahía and Cordoba, both are the major basketball capitals in the country, a lot of players come out from those cities, in which basketball is huge.
Cordoba is a medium city, one of the oldest in Argentina, founded by the Spanish. It has a strategic location, in the middle of the country, between the Buenos Aires port to the east, the Mendoza and Cuyo region to the west, and it is also in the middle of the country to the North and South. Its geography is composed mainly by hills, rivers and lakes.
Also I believe some of the articles in Spanish posted these last days were written from Cordoba media or Cordoba born writers, so that would explain it, too.
