Côte d'Ivoire, on the other hand, have never finished in the top four of the tournament and are back in the competition for the first time since 2010.

The Basketball World Cup:
The Basketball World Cup, also known as the FIBA Basketball World Cup, is an international men's basketball tournament organized by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA). Like the Football World Cup, the Basketball World Cup takes place every four years and brings together the best national basketball teams from around the world.
The first Basketball World Cup was held in 1950, and since then it has been one of the most prestigious events in the world of international basketball. Teams such as the United States, the Soviet Union (now Russia), Spain, Australia and Yugoslavia (now independent nations) have featured prominently in the competition over the years.
The United States has been remarkably successful in the Basketball World Cup, winning several titles over the years. However, the popularity and participation of NBA players in the Summer Olympics often attracts more attention than the Basketball World Cup.
The current edition, in 2023, will have three venues: Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines. The current edition has 32 teams, divided into eight groups of four. Two teams qualify for the next round and so the round of 16 begins, just like the soccer World Cup.
Brazil:
After losing 96-78 to Spain on Monday (28) in the Basketball World Cup, Brazil will have to overcome Côte d'Ivoire if they want to secure one of the two places in Group G for the next stage of the competition. Gustavo Conti's team will have to be more attentive to their opponents' attacks.
The Seleção have had some good friendly tournaments for this World Cup. In the main one, "Bommers x World", Brazil had a 100% record. The team beat Iran 100-59 and against the Spanish team, even though they gave the reigning world champions a hard time, they ended up being swallowed up by the Spaniards' better understanding.
TIME AND PLACE!
The match between Brazil and Cote d'Ivoire is valid for game 3 of the group stage in Group G of the Basketball World Cup. After losing 96-78 to Spain on Monday (28) in the Basketball World Cup, Brazil will have to overcome the Ivory Coast if they want to secure one of the two places in Group G for the next stage of the competition.
