Latino NBA players have entered the league for quite some time now. However, not all of them are as successful as their fellow Latinos. Here are five players who have yet to win a championship ring in their career.

1. Robin Lopez

Robin Lopez has a twin in the NBA named Brook. What others may not know is that he is of Cuban descent, per Interbasket. His father, Heriberto Lopez, hails from Cuba. The mother, Deborah Ledford, is of German, English, and Scottish descent.

Robin had a dismal start in his basketball career and not until he played for the Chicago Bulls had he shown some of his potential. He has a career averages of 8.9 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. Aside from the Bulls, he has played for Phoenix Suns, New Orleans Hornets, New York Knicks and Portland Trail Blazers.Robin now plays for the Milwaukee Bucks and is teammates with twin Brook.

Brook is the twin of Robin Lopez. He is more of an offensive player compared to his brother. He played his best season in 2012-2013 where he posted 19.4 points and corralled 6.9 rebounds per game. Despite his fine showing, his team at that time, the Brooklyn Nets, fell short in the playoffs against the Chicago Bulls.

Right now, he and Robin play for East Conference leaders Milwaukee Bucks. Now is the best chance for the twins to win a championship ring with reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo leading the charge. At 31 years old, the twins's time to win a title is dwindling. If they go on to win an NBA title this season, Robin and Brook could become the league's first twin teammates to win a ring.

3. Nene

Nene has been a force to reckon with the Brazil national basketball team. In the NBA, he has become a journeyman who is still searching for that elusive title. He has suited up for the Denver Nuggets, Washington Wizards and Houston Rockets.

Born Maybyner Rodney Hilário, Nene now plays with former MVPs Russell Westbrook and James Harden. Although he is injured and timetable for his return is still undetermined, he can still provide quality minutes when healthy. Like the Lopez twins, this could be his best chance to end his title drought.

4. Al Horford

Al Horford is one of the best big men in the league. The 13-year veteran has been an All-Star five times but has not won an NBA ring yet. He has played for the Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers and has averaged 14 points and 8 rebounds per game, per Basketball Reference.

The versatile big man can post, shoot midrange and connect from the rainbow territory. Unknown to many, he is from Dominican Republic and has often been a part of its national basketball team.

5. Carmelo Anthony

Carmelo Anthony could be the most famous on this list of Latino NBA players still in search of a title. According to Let Network, Melo is actually part Puerto Rican.

He was a college phenomenon who translated his success in the NBA. He has been NBA-All star 10 times and an All-NBA Team player 6 times. Anthony is also the most decorated Olympian in the men's basketball team history with 4 golds.

He now plays for the Portland Trail Blazers after being on the sidelines most of last season. He can still score and can be relied on giving that extra scoring punch, but his time is ticking.

These NBA players still have a chance to win it all. However, not all of them have the benefit of time on their side. Most of them are in the twilight of their careers. In case they retire without an NBA chip, it would not take anything from them and they are still considered some of the best Latino NBA players in history.
