Indonesia despite being one of the three co-host of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup did not qualify for the main tournament outright. The route available to Indonesia to qualify for their first ever World Cup was to finish in the top eight of the 2022 FIBA Asia Cup tournament.^[15][16] However, the Indonesian team failed at this attempt and finished 11th, after a loss to China in the playoffs in July 2022.^[17]
