China vs Serbia. First match for teams at World Cup 23
On August 26, the national teams of China and Serbia will play their first match at the 2023 Basketball World Cup. The battle of the teams will take place as part of the preliminary stage in group B. The meeting will be hosted by the Smart Araneta Coliseum arena in Manila.
The team took second place in qualifying and thus she got to the World Cup-23. The group was then won by the Australians. During the preparation for the tournament, the Chinese had four control fights and managed to win only one of them, breaking the guys from the modest Cape Verde team.
China is not the basketball elite of the planet. Yes, they are trying to develop this sport in the country, but it is still very, very far from great achievements. In the FIBA rating, the team hangs around the third ten. Not too bright.
The main star of the Chinese at the World Cup 23 will be Kyle Anderso, who plays for the Minnesota Timberwolves (NBA). The rest of the team's basketball players represent the domestic championship of the country, which the language does not dare to call a high-ranking championship.
Serbia
The national team made it to the World Cup, finishing second in its qualifying group. The surprise then was that the Latvians finished ahead of the Serbs there. Well, that happens sometimes. In the FIBA rankings, the Serbian national team currently occupies the ninth place (most recently, it lost one position here).
The main star of the national team is Nikola Jokic (“Nuggets”), but the basketball player will miss the World Cup-23, as well as Vasily Micic (“Thunder”). The absence of this pair is a serious blow to the team. Bogdan Bogdanovich (Hawks), as conceived by the coaches, will lead partners in the World Championship. Plus, they are obliged to help him: Nikola Jovic (“Hit”), Nikola Milutinov (“Oli”), Alexei Pokushevsky (“Thunder”), Marko Gudurich (“Fener”) and others.
The Serbs have a solid squad. Yes, he is not the best in the tournament, if we analyze strictly on paper, but matches are won exclusively on the floor, which means that there is no need to write off the team here in advance. These guys have both class and self-confidence. Before the World Cup, the team played four friendly matches, and in three of them it got positive results without much effort.
