what Canadian media say about the olympic birth? :) :clap: :wCAN:

They are very excited about it.  Basketball is pretty big in Canada and we have some big NBA stars, but it's been 23 years since we qualified a men's team.

Wanted Slovenia to win, as Doncic is one of my favorite NBA players, and would've loved to see him compete at Paris, but not to be this time. Still, can't be mad with a Canada win, and a chance to compete for the medals.

This is the first time that Canada's men team enters the top 4 teams in the FIBA World Championsip. The best result so far was 6th place in 1978 and 1982

That can’t be right, Canadians are the best in the world at finishing 4th!
