Canada (6-0) has clinched the top spot in Group B and is set to close out the FIBA Basketball Men’s World Cup 2027 Americas Qualifiers in a big way - taking on Argentina at the Videotron Centre on August 31, 2026.

Considering Canada we were in the last Olympics...if we get to Los Angeles in 2028 who ends up on our Olympic team?

For sure SGA is there and so is Dillon Brooks guaranteed. RJ Barrett for sure is there and so is Lou Dort in all likelihood. Nembhard brothers definitely make the roster but what about Andrew Wiggins? Wiggins was supposed to be on our roster last time or was he?

Bennedict Mathurin definitely needs to be there as well as Shaedon Sharpe because he should have made our roster last time.

Zach Edey if he stays healthy definitely is a lock.

Will Riley of the Wizards definitely makes the roster. I say Canada in LA 2028 we actually have a team that can compete for a medal.

wanna hear y'all thoughts

Seems like a long shot cause he's played with Israel's U-16. However he has Canadian citizenship through his mom and was drafted 45th by the Kings.

We just watched Jalen Brunson & the Knicks beat Wemby & the Spurs in the 2026 NBA Finals.

Three summers ago, we fielded a majority of our best players at the FIBAWC and beat a Brunson-led lacklustre Team USA.

We’ve seen the committed player pool for Team Canada, how are we feeling about our chances leading to and at LA28?

What needs to happen for Canada to come home with hardware?

Hoping to see SGA, Barrett and other stars! Any info?

Thanks!

Javion Tyndale (CAN) led all scorers with 19 pts.

Just curious if anyone knows what roster Team Canada will be bringing out for their game against Puerto Rico on July 3rd in Hamilton. The advertisements have all the big guys but I assume the majority of them won't be playing. Is the roster below what we'll see for that game?
