Team Canada is ready to make some noise at the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup.
The Canadians are hoping for a better finish after they failed to escape the "group of death" at the 2019 tournament. That squad was light on NBA talent and unable to compete with Australia and Lithuania.
But talent shouldn't be a problem this year. The 2023 roster features an All-NBA First Team guard in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and an All-Defensive Second Team forward in Dillon Brooks.
And that's not all. Here is a breakdown of Team Canada's roster for the FIBA Basketball World Cup.
