The 2023 FIBA World Cup 2023 schedule for men’s basketball is scheduled from August 25th to September 10th and will be co-hosted by the Philippines, Japan, and Indonesia.
The competition employs a format akin to the soccer World Cup, featuring 32 teams grouped into eight clusters. The upper two teams from each group will advance to the subsequent stage, forming 16 teams distributed across four groups. Points garnered in the initial phase will carry forward, determining the top two teams from each of these groups who will earn berths in the quarterfinals.
Regarding Olympic qualification, the two best-performing teams from the Americas and Europe—excluding France, which secures an automatic spot as the Olympic host—will qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics. Furthermore, the highest-ranking teams from Africa, Asia, and Oceania will each secure a qualifying position.
