On August 25, the Basketball World Cup begins with the novelty that for the first time it will be played in three different countries at the same time. Until September 10 -the date the tournament ends- 32 countries will compete in the World Cup. The United States, France, Canada and Spain are the favorite teams. The American team, led by Steve Kerr, does not have any of the great NBA super figures, but the block, as could be seen in the FEB Centennial Tournament, has a solidity that some of the ” Team USA” above.
Angola, Dominican Republic, Philippines, Italy, South Sudan, Serbia, China, Puerto Rico, United States, Jordan, Greece, New Zealand, Lithuania, Mexico, Montenegro, Egypt, Germany, Finland, Australia, Japan, Slovenia, Cape Verde , Georgia, Venezuela, Iran, Spain, Brazil, Ivory Coast, Canada, Latvia, France and Lebanon are the 32 teams that will compete in the tournament.
Spain is classified in group G with the Ivory Coast, Brazil and Iran. Scariolo revealed after the FEB Centennial Tournament how Spain was: “We have not played tactically against the United States. We have not prepared our team to compete. At a given moment, and if we were lucky enough to meet again, it would be different. It is a question of common sense. You have to know when to put everything in to try to win the game. In theory, this team should win 30 points against any rival. They are the best team in the world”, he concluded. The coach extended his balance further: “I want to start by congratulating the Under 16s for having won another gold that culminates another great summer. I also want to send a hug to Jorge Garbajosa, who has finished his stage here and we will miss him even though we are going to be accompanying. And, finally, a hug to Dani Hierrezuelo, who is going to assume another prestigious position, but he will be missed. And I want to highlight the fans of Malaga, who have created a fantastic atmosphere. They had fun and I think that the two teams have enjoyed. They are the best team in the world. It has been a useful friendly”.
