If they place 3rd, 4th, 5th in the championship, that would decrease their chances of getting into Olympics, but they would qualify to Wildcard and still compete, but only the top 2 places qualify. When deciding who qualifies for the Olympics, the judges look at the following: * FIBA World Championship place - where does the team stand in the FIBA World Championship (the next one will be in Turkey in 2010)? The number one qualifies automatically. * Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe and Oceania competitions - the judges will look at Eurobasket, FIBA Africa, FIBA America, FIBA Oceania 2011 standings. At least the team that placed first qualifies. * Those teams that placed 3rd, 4th, 5th and even 6th, qualify to the Wildcard round. * In the Wildcard, the top two teams qualify for the Olympics. * All qualified teams compete. Here is the number of slots offered for each continent: * America - 2 qualify, 3 go to Wildcard * Europe - 3 qualify, 4 go to Wildcard * Asia - 1 qualifies, 2 go to Wildcard * Africa - 1 qualifies, 2 go to Wildcard * Oceania - 1 qualifies, 1 goes to Wildcard
