Which European teams will be next to advance to the Second Round?

MUNICH (Germany) - 12 teams have already made it through to the Second Round of the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 European Qualifiers with more places to be decided on Gameday 5.

The penultimate set of games on the final window will see more teams lock up their spots in the next phase with the top three teams in each group advancing.

There have been significant developments since the last window in February as Belarus and Russia were withdrawn from their respective groups, placing the other teams from these pools directly in the Second Round.
