The draw for the 2020 Olympic Qualifiers Tournament took place at the Patrick Baumann House of Basketball in Switzerland and the end result created some very interesting duels.
While the host countries of the four tournaments, Serbia, Croatia, Lithuania, and Canada have an obvious advantage, Slovenia which will face Lithuania and Greece which will travel to Canada, can also have high hopes.
Having said that, those hopes highly depend on the fact of Luka Doncic joining the Slovenian national team and Giannis Antetokounmpo doing the same with Greece.
The draw results were the following:
Victoria, Canada
Group A: Greece, China, Canada
Group B: Uruguay, Czech Republic, Turkey
Split, Croatia
Group A: Germany, Russia, Mexico
Group B: Tunisia, Croatia, Brazil
Kaunas, Lithuania
Group A: Lithuania, South Korea, Venezuela
Group B: Poland, Slovenia, Angola
Belgrade, Serbia
Group A: Dominican Republic, New Zealand, Serbia
Group B: Puerto Rico, Italy, Senegal
The three teams of each group in each tournament will play against each other, the top two of each group will get to the semifinal of each tournament and the four finals will decide the four last tickets to Tokyo.
