History has been made as Spain is the new number one team in the latest FIBA World Ranking Men, presented by Nike<\/a>. With USA holding the number one spot for over 12 years, Spain is only the second team to top the ranking since its introduction in 2010.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Spain\u2019s jump from No. 2 to the top spot resulted from their consistency in recent years in each game of each competition. Spain captured the titles at the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019<\/a> and the FIBA EuroBasket 2022<\/a> while also reaching the Quarter-Finals of the Tokyo Olympics<\/a>. Their qualification campaigns since 2017 have also been very solid to help gain more points.<\/p>\n

The United States of America meanwhile did claim the gold at the Olympics but they dropped out of the World Cup in the Quarter-Finals and finished third at the FIBA AmeriCup 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Spain’s most recent window for the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 Qualifiers was once again successful, winning a thriller in Italy and against Netherlands in theEuropean Qualifiers<\/a> to book their ticket to Asia.<\/p>\n

A key component to Spain’s consistency has been their ability to evolve as a national team over the years and develop a large pool of players through the FIBA qualifiers. Sergio Scariolo has used 29 players with nine of them playing in six or more games and three with nine appearances.<\/p>\n

Spain lead the ranking with 758.6 points followed by the United States with 757.5 points. The rest of the top 10 remained unchanged: Australia, Argentina, France, Serbia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Greece and Italy.<\/p>\n

Brazil’s win over the United States and subsequent blowout of Mexico allowed the South Americans to jump one spot from 14 to 13 – swapping places with Poland.<\/p>\n

The biggest riser in the ranking is Thailand as they won all four of their games in theFIBA Asia Cup 2025 Pre-Qualifiers<\/a> in the November window to move up 10 spots to 92nd in the world.<\/p>\n
