The '''2010 FIBA World Championship''' was the 16th [[FIBA World Championship]], the international [[basketball]] world championship contested by the [[List of men's national basketball teams|men's national teams]]. The tournament ran from 28 August to 12 September 2010. It was co-organised by the [[FIBA|International Basketball Federation]] (FIBA), [[Turkish Basketball Federation]] and the 2010 Organising Committee. It was considered as prestigious a competition as the [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|Olympic Basketball Tournament]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.usabasketball.com/inside.php?page=inside |title=FIBA World Championships |publisher=USA.Basketball.com |date=1989-10-12 |access-date=2010-09-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100611035628/http://www.usabasketball.com/inside.php?page=inside |archive-date=2010-06-11 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The tournament was hosted by [[Turkey]].

For the third time (after the [[1986 FIBA World Championship|1986]] and [[2006 FIBA World Championship|2006]] tournaments), the World Championship had 24 competing nations. As a result, the group stage games were played in four cities, and the knockout round was hosted by [[Istanbul]].

The [[2010 United States men's FIBA World Championship team|United States]] won the tournament for their fourth time after going undefeated in the Opening Round and beating host [[Turkey men's national basketball team|Turkey]] in the final.

The draw for the Championship took place on 15 December 2009 in Istanbul.<ref>[http://turkey2010.fiba.com/ce/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v1/draw/geneInfo.asp?selNodeID=8957&openNodeIDs=8957 Draw] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120719201154/http://turkey2010.fiba.com/ce/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v1/draw/geneInfo.asp?selNodeID=8957&openNodeIDs=8957 |date=2012-07-19 }} at turkey2010.fiba.com</ref> Teams were drawn into four preliminary round groups of six teams each.

Three bids from six countries – [[France]], [[Turkey]], and a joint bid from former [[Yugoslavia|Yugoslav]] republics [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]], [[Croatia]], [[Serbia and Montenegro]], and [[Slovenia]] – made their final presentation during the FIBA's 20-member Central Board in [[Kuala Lumpur]], [[Malaysia]], on 5 December 2004. Previously, [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]], [[Italy]], [[Russia]] and [[Puerto Rico]] announced their intention to bid from the tournament, but withdrew their bids prior to the votes. France won the first round of voting, but Turkey eventually won the right to host after the joint bidders were knocked out in the first round.<ref>{{cite news|title=Turkey to host 2010 basketball world championship |url=http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-12/05/content_397429.htm|access-date=2010-07-19|newspaper=China Daily|date=2004-12-05}}</ref>

The tournament was the first time that Turkey has hosted the event and marked the first World Championship held in Europe since the [[1998 FIBA World Championship]] was held in Greece.

== Venues ==
Below is a list of the venues which hosted games during the 2010 FIBA World Championship. Each preliminary round group was hosted in a single arena in [[Kayseri]] (Group A), [[Istanbul]] (Group B), [[Ankara]] (Group C), and [[İzmir]] (Group D). The knockout phase then moved to Istanbul's [[Sinan Erdem Dome]]. [[Ankara Arena]], completed in 2010, and [[Kadir Has Spor Salonu|Kadir Has Arena]], completed in 2008, were built for the championships, while the other three arenas underwent renovations for the event.

== Qualifying ==
{{Main|2010 FIBA World Championship qualification}}
[[File:2010 FIBA World Championship qualifying 2.PNG|thumb|270px|Qualified countries are in blue; those in yellow failed to qualify, and those in dark gray did not enter qualifying.]]

[[Turkey national basketball team|Turkey]] automatically qualified as the host country, and the [[2010 United States men's FIBA World Championship team|United States]] also received an automatic berth for winning the [[Basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2008 Olympic men's basketball tournament]].

Most other teams secured their places in continental qualifying tournaments (three from [[FIBA Africa Championship 2009|Africa]], three from [[2009 FIBA Asia Championship|Asia]], two from [[FIBA Oceania Championship 2009|Oceania]], four from the [[FIBA Americas Championship 2009|Americas]], and six from [[Eurobasket 2009|Europe]]). [[International Basketball Federation|FIBA]] invited four "wild card" teams to fill out the twenty-four team field.

=== Wild cards ===

The four [[Wild card (sports)|wild cards]] were determined by [[FIBA]] through criteria. For example, a team must have played in the Zone's qualification tournament to receive recommendation.<ref>[http://turkey2010.fiba.com/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v2/event-guide/p/wild-card.html Wild card Criteria] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091208143511/http://turkey2010.fiba.com/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v2/event-guide/p/wild-card.html |date=2009-12-08 }} at turkey2010.fiba.com</ref> Also, in order for every team to have an opportunity for a wild card, a maximum of three teams from any Zone can be allotted a wild card entry. Once these requirements are satisfied, FIBA then looks at other important factors. Those include popularity of basketball within the country, success of the team, and government support for the team's National Federation. As of 2009, FIBA now requires that wild card candidates pay a late registration fee to be considered.<ref>[http://turkey2010.fiba.com/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v2/event-guide/p/wild-card.html Additional Info about Wild cards] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091208143511/http://turkey2010.fiba.com/pages/eng/fe/10/fwc/men/v2/event-guide/p/wild-card.html |date=2009-12-08 }} at turkey2010.fiba.com</ref>

Fourteen teams paid the 500,000 € fee to apply for one of the four wild card spots. FIBA then whittled down the teams to eight semifinalists – [[Cameroon men's national basketball team|Cameroon]], [[Germany men's national basketball team|Germany]], [[Great Britain men's national basketball team|Great Britain]], [[South Korea men's national basketball team|Korea]], [[Lebanon men's national basketball team|Lebanon]], [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]], [[Nigeria men's national basketball team|Nigeria]], and [[Russia men's national basketball team|Russia]].<ref>[http://www.interbasket.net/news/2009/12/11/fiba-wild-cards-its-down-to-eight/ FIBA Wild Cards: It's Down to Eight] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100707010908/http://www.interbasket.net/news/2009/12/11/fiba-wild-cards-its-down-to-eight/ |date=2010-07-07 }} at Interbasket.net</ref> On Saturday 12 December 2009, FIBA awarded Germany, Lebanon, Lithuania and Russia the four wild cards.<ref>{{cite news|title=Russia, Lithuania, Germany and Lebanon get wild cards |url=https://www.talkbasket.net/5091-russia-lithuania-germany-and-lebanon-get-wild-cards |access-date=12 December 2009 |work=TalkBasket.net |language=en}}</ref>

The draw for the championship took place in Istanbul on 15 December 2009.

== Group draw ==

The draw was held on 15 December 2009 at the Ciragan Palace Kempinski Hotel in Istanbul, which divided the qualified teams into four groups of six, groups A, B, C, and D, as listed for the [[#Preliminary round|preliminary round]].<ref>{{cite web|title=PR N°41 - Draw Results for the 2010 FIBA World Championship |url=https://www.fiba.basketball/news/PR-N-41-Draw-Results-for-the-2010-FIBA-World-Championship|publisher=FIBA|access-date=1 November 2023|date=15 December 2009}}</ref> Aside from the fact that those teams in the same line would not be in the same preliminary round groups, there were no other restrictions on how teams may be drawn.

The company was among the official sponsors of the tournament.]]

At the start of tournament, all 24 participating countries had 12 players on their rosters. Final squads for the tournament were due on 26 August, two days before the start of competition.<ref>{{cite news |title=Odom, Billups fulfilling childhood dream |url=http://basketball.teamusa.org/news/2010/08/11/odom-billups-fulfilling-childhood-dream/37804 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110728083241/http://basketball.teamusa.org/news/2010/08/11/odom-billups-fulfilling-childhood-dream/37804 |url-status=dead |archive-date=28 July 2011 |work=TeamUSA.org |date=11 May 2010 |access-date=3 September 2010 }}</ref>

[[Angola men's national basketball team|Angola]] and the [[2010 United States men's FIBA World Championship team|United States]] were the only teams made up of entirely domestic players ([[Jordan men's national basketball team|Jordan]] and [[Russia men's national basketball team|Russia]] each had 11 domestic players). [[Slovenia men's national basketball team|Slovenia]] was the only team composed entirely of individuals playing outside the domestic league. The [[Canada men's national basketball team|Canada]] squad also consisted entirely of individuals playing outside the country, but at that time Canada had no professional league operating exclusively in the country (a [[National Basketball League of Canada|minor professional league]] was scheduled to begin play in 2011). The [[National Basketball Association]], based in the U.S., has [[Toronto Raptors|a Canadian team]], and several minor leagues operate on both sides of the U.S.—Canada border. Four Canadian squad members played in U.S.-based competitions—two with U.S.-based NBA teams, and two for [[Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball|Gonzaga University's team]]. Forty-one NBA players were selected to compete in the tournament, the most of any league.

== Preparation matches ==

=== Acropolis tournament ===
{{See also|Acropolis International Tournament 2010}}

[[Greece men's national basketball team|Greece]] and [[Serbia men's national basketball team|Serbia]] both began the tournament shorthanded when each had two players suspended for their roles in a brawl at the World Championship tuneup Acropolis Tournament, held in mid-August. The two teams engaged in a chaotic brawl with 2:40 left when Greece's [[Antonis Fotsis]] threatened Serbia's [[Miloš Teodosić]] after Teodosić committed a foul.<ref>{{cite news|title=Serbia center released after basketball brawl |url=http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/38783406/ns/sports/ |work=MSNBC.com |date=20 August 2010 |access-date=5 September 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100821220117/http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/38783406/ns/sports/ |archive-date=21 August 2010 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The fight spilled off the floor and into the locker room tunnel; the game was thus terminated with final score the score at the time of the interruption (74–73 for Greece). Serbian center [[Nenad Krstić]] was arrested and held overnight for throwing a chair in the brawl.

For their roles in the melee, Krstić was suspended for the first three games of the tournament, while Teodosić, and Greece's Fotsis and [[Sofoklis Schortsanitis]] were suspended for the first two games. Both Greek coach [[Jonas Kazlauskas]] and Serbian coach [[Dušan Ivković]] criticized FIBA for waiting until less than 48 hours before the tournament – over a week after the brawl – to announce the suspensions, citing the unfairness of playing shorthanded for the first games.<ref>{{cite news |title=Coach: Bans 'something unbelievable'|url=https://www.espn.com/olympics/olybb/news/story?id=5502854 |work=ESPN.com |date=27 August 2010 |access-date=5 September 2010| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100830153835/http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/olybb/news/story?id=5502854| archive-date= 30 August 2010 | url-status= live}}</ref> Greece eventually won their first two games in spite of the suspensions, while Serbia won two of their first three games.

== Preliminary round ==
[[File:2010 FIBA World Championship final rankings.png|thumb|400px|2010 FIBA World Championship final rankings.]]
The top four finishers in each of the four preliminary round groups advanced to the sixteen team, single-elimination knockout stage, where Group A teams would meet Group B teams and Group C would meet Group D. European teams proved the most successful in the first round, as nine of the ten teams advanced to the knockout stage (only Germany did not progress). Both Oceanian teams qualified for the next round, as did three of the five FIBA Americas teams. The three African and four Asian teams struggled, with only Angola and China reaching the knockout stage after each finished fourth place in their group.

There were few surprises in the early round; each team that advanced to the knockout stage was ranked in the top 20 of the [[FIBA World Ranking]] at the time of the tournament. Defending champions Spain struggled early, losing two of their first three games before recovering to finish second in Group D. Argentina and the United States, the two top teams in the FIBA rankings, both cruised to the knockout phase, as the United States went 5–0 and Argentina went 4–1, with their only loss coming to Number 5 ranked Serbia.

=== Tie-breaking procedure ===

At the end of the preliminary round, any ties will be broken by the following criteria, ordered from the one that will be applied first to the last:
# Game results between tied teams
# [[Goal average]] between games of the tied teams
# Goal average for all games of the tied teams
# Drawing of lots

=== Group A (Kayseri) ===
