No continental restrictions here? There can be 5 European or 5 American teams in one tournament ???

There haven't been any continental restrictions in the past. Unlike the women, there is already representation in each continent.

 

Also in 2020 teams were seeded by world ranking, including the hosts. The only restriction is hosts couldn't be in the same group for obvious reasons.

So, for top teams, you would obviously want to avoid Bahamas from 6th and Croatia from 5th pot and you would be pleased if you get Poland from the 2nd. 

 

Good thing they didn't put Puerto Rico in the first pot. It would be unfair advantage and put Slovenia in 2nd pot

Looks like there are some restrictions:

 

• There can be a maximum of two European teams in each group and not more than three European teams in each tournament.
• There can be a maximum of one Americas team per group.
• There can be a maximum of one team from Asia and Oceania in each tournament.
• There can be a maximum of one team from Africa into each tournament.

 

Some fun quirks due to the restrictions.

 

•  can not be in the same tournament meaning Mexico will be the Pan American nation which doubles up.
•  can not be in the same tournament due to keeping Asian & African teams separate.

Official pot's

 

 

Edit: Each FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2024 will host two groups of 3 teams. Pots 1,4 and 5 will feed the Group As; while pots 2,3 and 6 will feed the Group Bs. The four hosts will be allocated to the tournaments taking place in their country.

I dont underestimate them, I just believe that can or Puerto Rico can be beatable for our guys team (from host nation teams) for sure more than Spain and Greece, against which we cant play because we are in the same pot.
