FIBA World Cup 2023
Philippines, Japan, and Indonesia will host the first-ever FIBA Basketball World Cup from August 25th to September 10th. In order to avoid conflict with the FIFA World Cup, the start of the FIBA World Cup, which has just concluded, was moved up to 2022; therefore, the event will be repeated in 2023.
Host Selection
On June 7th, 2016, the sport's governing body decided to begin soliciting bids for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup. After Russia and Turkey decided not to bid, FIBA released the list of hopefuls on June 1st, 2017.
On December 9, the FIBA World Cup's next host countries—Indonesia, Japan, and the Philippines—were revealed. All three countries have chosen their favorite teams to face off in the Group Stage at the FIBA World Cup 2023, which they will host. However, Indonesia will be eliminated at this stage.
Following discussions with the host countries, the FIBA Central Board confirmed that the United States would travel to the Philippines, Slovenia would travel to Japan, and Canada would travel to Indonesia. While Slovenia and Canada have already qualified, the United States has a strong chance of establishing them if they win in the final qualifying window.
A host's financial interest in a certain team's success need not compromise the fairness of a random team pick.
Venues
For the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, five different locations have been chosen. The first four groups, the second two groups, the quarterfinals, and the finals will all be hosted by different cities in the Greater Manila Area.
The Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, and the Philippine Arena in Bocaue are all potential venues for a game.
Indonesia
Indonesia Arena (Jakarta) – 16,500 seat capacity
Japan
Okinawa Arena (Okinawa City) – 10,000 seat capacity
Philippines
Smart Araneta Coliseum (Quezon City) – 15,000 seat capacity
Mall of Asia Arena (Pasay City) – 15,000 seat capacity
Philippine Arena (Bocaue, Bulacan) – 55,000 seat capacity
Games in Okinawa, Japan, will be held in the Okinawa Arena, while those in Jakarta, Indonesia, will be held at the Istora Gelora Bunk Kamo.
The preliminary rounds will be held in all three countries, while the finals will be held in the Philippines. As was previously established, Indonesia has never even qualified for the World Cup.
Qualification
There will be 32 teams at the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, and 30 of them will be determined through the qualification procedure. The best seven teams from each qualifying tournament's staging region will advance to the World Cup. The following categories have been used to classify them:
The Americas: 2 Teams
Europe: 2 Teams
Asia: 1 Team
Oceania: 1 Team
Africa: 1 Team
As a result of their performances in the FIBA Continental Cups (2022 FIBA Asia Cup, 2022 FIBA EuroBasket, 2022 FIBA AmeriCup, and 2021 FIBA AfroBasket), 80 teams from 4 FIBA Zones advanced for the World Cup Qualifiers.
The number of European and American teams who advanced past their respective continental tournaments increased. All AfroBasket and Asia Cup entrants will be automatically entered into the regional playoffs.
The Philippines has a leg up on the race thanks to their role as hosts of the World Cup finals and one of Asia's 7 guaranteed qualifying spots. In 2023, the World Cup will be held in three different countries: the Philippines, Japan, and Indonesia. These squads have made the cut and will be competing.
Based on its ranking, Japan is entitled to not only host but also claim one of Asia's 7 berths.
Asian Qualifiers
Sixteen different countries are competing for 7 available berths in Asia and Oceania for the FIBA World Cup 2023. Countries on the list include:
Australia
Bahrain
China

Korea
Lebanon
New Zealand
Philippines
Saudi Arabia

Japan and the Philippines are both assured of berths in the FIBA Basketball World Cup's first and second rounds of Asian qualification. If Indonesia can make it to the FIBA Asia Cup quarterfinals, they will qualify automatically. That's right; you can add another six squads if you like.
Between November 2021 and February 2023, all of the Asian qualifying matches (both home and away) will be played. This allows for more regular, high-quality national team competitions, which is great for players and fans all across the world.
