Of that list, Serbia and Montenegro need just one win to ensure their place in the World Cup. With so much riding on the next two games countries are turning out their best rosters they can with those playing in the United States' top basketball league - the NBA - unable to compete with the season in full swing. One player worth watching out when the action in Europe gets underway will be France's Victor Wembanyama. Though the hosts of next year's Olympics have already booked their place at the World Cup in the previous Window, their work now begins preparing their squad for the challenge and 19-year-old Wembanyama is expecetd to be a key piece of the puzzle. When he suited up for France in Window 5, Wembanyama averaged 19. 5 points and 6. 5 rebounds.
Of those four, two can clinch a berth on the first of the two game-days. In Group E, should Jordan beat India or New Zealand defeat Saudi Arabia then Jordan will progress. In Group F, should Iran defeat Japan, and People’s Republic of China defeat Kazakhstan then Iran will secure a spot in the World Cup. If results don’t fall this way, then the door opens to both Kazakhstan and Saudi Arabia meaning all four teams are back in the race. Having stunned New Zealand in Window 5 Jordan are without a doubt in the strongest position to qualify.
