The FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournaments are finally here. After weeks of speculation and unconfirmed reports (FYI all of our sources are legit, wink, wink!), we at AfricaBasket are excited to bring you the confirmed rosters for the four African nations—Cameroon, Egypt, Angola, and Côte d'Ivoire—competing for a coveted golden ticket to the 2024 Paris Olympics.

From July 2nd to July 7th, four Olympic Qualifying Tournaments will take place in Greece (featuring Egypt competing in Group B), Latvia (featuring Cameroon competing in Group B), Puerto Rico (Côte d'Ivoire, competing in Group A), and Spain (featuring Angola competing in Group A).
