Beijing News (Reporter Xu Bangyin) On February 2, the Tokyo Olympics basketball draw ceremony was held in Switzerland. The high-profile men’s basketball groupings were announced. The American team, the French team, and the Iranian team gathered in Group A. The host Japanese men's basketball team had poor luck and was assigned to Group C with the 2019 Men's Basketball World Cup champion Spain and the runner-up Argentina.

is different from the women's basketball draw. Not all of the 12 teams participating in the Tokyo Olympics men's basketball competition have been selected. There are 7 teams including the United States, Spain, Argentina, Nigeria, Iran, France, and Australia. The team qualified for the 2019 Men's Basketball World Cup, and the Japanese men's basketball team was directly qualified as the host nation.

The remaining four participating places will be determined through the Olympic Qualifying Tournament. According to the schedule, the Tokyo Olympic Men's Basketball Qualifying Tournament will be held from June 29 to July 4, 2021. 24 teams are divided into 4 groups. The competition starts in 4 different divisions, namely Victoria in Canada, Split in Croatia, Kaunas in Lithuania, and Belgrade in Serbia. The top place in each division is shortlisted for the Tokyo Olympics.

However, in today's draw ceremony, the Tokyo Olympics men's basketball teams were announced, and the qualifying teams from the four divisions were also placed in advance. The qualifying teams from Canada's Victoria Division are in Group A with the United States, France and Iran. The qualifying teams from Split, Croatia and Belgrade, Serbia are in Group B. The qualifying teams from Kaunas, Lithuania are in Group B. Was assigned to Group C where Japan team , Spain team, and Argentina team are located.

Considering that Spain and Argentina are the champions and runner-ups of the 2019 Basketball World Cup respectively, and the historical records of the two teams in the Olympic Games are also very brilliant, the qualifying team in the Kaunas Division of Lithuania is likely to be the Lithuanian team or the Slovenian team, the host country The Japanese men's basketball team can be said to have fallen into the "Group of Death", and the possibility of advancing to the top 8 is slim.

As for the Chinese men’s basketball team, although in theory there is still a chance to advance to the Tokyo Olympics through the qualifying rounds, the team is assigned to the Victoria Division of Canada. The opponents in the same division include Greece, Canada, Turkey and other strong teams, so it is almost impossible to advance from Qualifying round. If a miracle happens and the Chinese men's basketball team breaks through the qualifying rounds, the team will face the United States, Iran, and France in the Tokyo Olympics group stage.
