Official 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup Thread (August 25 - September 10)

Also why do the major tournaments keep having to happen in Asia

Shanghai, Tokyo and Phillipines/Indonesia back to back to back plus Qatar has the WC in 2027

cuz they lobby for them. Jakarta's never getting an Olympic bid. Same with Manila. Same with Qatar. This is the next best thing.

Why would the US wanna lobby for an event we don't really care for?

The last FIBA qualifying tournament, one of the group plays was in Canada.
