The 2024 FIBA Men's Olympic Qualifying Tournaments will be basketball tournaments set to be contested by 24 national teams, where the top teams earn a place in the 2024 Summer Olympics basketball tournament.[1] They are scheduled to take place from 2 to 7 July 2024 in Greece, Latvia, Puerto Rico and Spain.[2]
Teams
The FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournaments includes the 16 best-placed non-qualified teams from the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup and three highest-ranked countries per region in the FIBA World Ranking.
The draw for the Olympic qualifiers took place in Mies, Switzerland on 27 November 2023 (19:00 CET).[1][3]
Seeding
The latest ranking before the draw served as the basis to determine the pots for the draw (seeding in brackets).[1][4]
There will be four tournaments, with teams to be drawn into two groups of three teams per tournament. Group As will draw teams from pots 1, 4, 5, while Group Bs will have teams from pots 2, 3, 6.[1]
Also for "geographical balance" purposes, a group can only have a maximum of two European teams and one Americas team. Each tournament can only have a maximum of three European teams, one Asia or Oceania team, and one African team.[1]
