Ten months after Canada’s national men’s basketball team last took to the court in FIBA AmeriCup qualifying action, they’re set to do it all over again next week.

This time, however, it will feature a foray into Saskatchewan for the first time with SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon set to host a pair of games for Team Canada.

“Here we go again,” said Canada Basketball general manager and executive vice-president Rowan Barrett. “It’s the beginning of a new [quadrennial] leading into the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. These are the beginning steps that we go through working to qualify to the AmeriCup that’s coming up this summer.”

Picking up a pair of victories against Nicaragua in the first qualifying window back in February, Team Canada will hit the court looking to pick up a few more wins with the goal of qualifying for the 2025 FIBA AmeriCup which will be hosted by Nicaragua next August.
