All six wins
FIBA World Cup qualification Canada is the only national team to finish the FIBA qualifiers with all six wins. This result is no surprise. Canada was by far the best selection in the group. The opponents in the form of the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, and the US Virgin Islands are not even close to the quality of Canada. In the last round, they achieved a convincing victory against the last-mentioned team 113-67. In this way, the great first round of qualifications was put to an end.
FIBA World Cup qualification Canada with Argentina, Venezuela, and Panama in the next round
FIBA World Cup qualification Canada will play against Argentina, Venezuela, and Panama in the next round. Argentina managed to get revenge for the only defeat they suffered against Venezuela. These two national teams and Canada have the best chance to qualify for the World Cup. The Dominican Republic could enter the race for a trip to Indonesia, Japan, and the Philippines. The chances of us watching the Bahamas or Panama at the next World Cup are very small. At the last World Cup held in China, Canada managed only one victory. Next year, we should expect this team to advance to the second round of the competition. Canada could be one of the potential surprises at that championship.
The USA is in the group with Brazil, Uruguay, and Colombia-
When we talk about FIBA Americas, it is clear which national team is the favorite for the gold medal at the world championship. The USA allowed one loss in the first round. Mexico managed to defeat them. The Americans, as you know, play the qualifiers without NBA players. At the last world championship, they did not win a medal, which happens to them very rarely. We will see if they will send the strongest team to the next championship. These qualifiers ended with a victory against Cuba 87-64. In the second round, they will play against Brazil, Uruguay, and Colombia. In addition to them, Mexico and Puerto Rico will play with the mentioned national teams.
Brazil, however, suffered a surprising 104-98 overtime loss to Colombia in the final round. The Americans and Brazilians already have one foot at the World Cup. Of the remaining national teams, Colombia seems to have little chance of a historic result. The other national teams will fight for a place in the world championship.
