But though most of their work is done the Boomers are not taking this window lightly. With NBA stars like Patty Mills, Joe Ingles, and Matisse Thybulle unable to report for national duty due to the league commitments Australia have turned to their national league stars to get the job done. Headlining those chosen is 2022 NBL champion and reigning Finals MVP Xavier Cooks who receives the nod for the first time since Tokyo 2020 where the Boomers scooped up bronze.
As the hosts of the World Cup’s ‘finals phase, ’ the Philippines are already qualified, as are Japan who qualified as host by virtue of its ranking. This means they already occupy two of the seven available spots for teams coming from Asia (and Oceania). Third co-host Indonesia will not compete in the tournament after failing to improve their ranking in time. With Lebanon and New Zealand now confirmed that leaves just three spots left for those from the two continents trying to get to the World Cup next year.
Adding more heat to the fire is the recent start of the National Basketball Association (NBA) 2022/23 season meaning many countries will be without their top talent heading into crunch games - it means depth will be tested.

The 18-year-old 7-foot-4 phenomenon sent shockwaves through the basketball world when he stunned during a pre-season game between his side, Metropolitans 92, and the NBA G League Ignite. His performance had everyone talking about him, not least LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant.
