Vektor 3,195 Posted May 30, 2021 #41 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Very embarrassing for the to miss any basketball event at the Games, especially considering that they won the World Cup in 2019. Come on , you can qualify, and I am totally not rooting for you to make our job easier in Debrecen. Not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latvia are top favorites and with Netherlands going through to the semis... My picks are Latvia, Netherlands, Slovenia and France for semis. Poland is in semis instead Slovenia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because those players would not: a) be eligible, since they have no points in 3x3 ranking; b) care about this tournament or the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, to prevent 5x5 players from just showing up and overrunning the regular competitors, FIBA made a rule stating athletes must compete in a minimum number of events.
