The coach of the French national team presented a list of 38 players from which the final roster for its tournament will be selected.

Shooting Guards (8) : Nando De Colo, Evan Fournier, Edwin Jackson, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, Rodrigue Beaubois, Fabien Causeur, Paul Lacombe, Axel Toupane.
Small Forwards (8) : Nicolas Batum, Nobel Boungou-colo, Charles Kahudi, Damien Inglis, Jeremy Leloup, Yakuba Ouattara, Axel Bouteille.
Power Forwards (8) : Boris Diaw, Adrien Moerman, Guerschon Yabusele, Amath M’Baye, Louis Labeyrie, Livio Jean-Charles, Alpha Kaba, Killian Tillie.
