Cote d'Ivoire not only became the first African national team to qualify for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, but the Elephants remain as the only team that hasn't tasted defeat in African Qualifiers. 

The teams that finish first and second in Groups E and F, and the team with the best Third-Place record secure the five spots available for African countries for the 2023 World Cup.
