FIBA World Cup 2023: Schedule, news, Team USA roster

The 2023 FIBA World Cup is complete, and Germany has won its first gold medal, defeating Serbia in the championship game, 83-77. The Germans' previous best finish was bronze in 2002, when the tournament was held in the United States.

This year's United States squad improved on its disappointing seventh-place finish in 2019, but still failed to medal after losing to Canada in overtime, 127-118, in the third-place game.

Both Team USA and Canada guaranteed a berth in the 2024 Olympic Games by being one of the top two finishers from the Americas region in the 2023 FIBA World Cup. They will be joined by World Cup finalists Germany and Serbia, who were the top two finishers from Europe. South Sudan, Japan and Australia also earned Olympic spots based on their finishes in the 2023 World Cup.

Team USA's 12-player squad, which featured NBA stars such as Anthony Edwards, Jalen Brunson and Austin Reaves, lost three times, including in the semifinals, 113-111, to Germany, which knocked Steve Kerr's team out of gold medal contention.
