Tunisia's U23 3x3 basketball team misses World Cup qualification after losing to Algeria

Tunisia's U23 men's 3x3 basketball team narrowly missed out on a World Cup spot, finishing second to Algeria in the North Africa FIBA Nations League conference held in Monastir. Despite leading in three of the six stages and winning their final match against Algeria, the team ultimately fell short in the overall standings.

The women's team also struggled, securing fourth place in the general classification. Egypt claimed the sole World Cup qualification spot for women from the region. Tunisia's women's team won their final match against Benin but lost to Uganda.

The FIBA 3x3 Nations League is a key development circuit for young players, with conference winners earning World Cup berths. Tunisia's focus now shifts to the Mediterranean Games in Taranto, Italy, where the men's team will face Italy, Spain, and Bosnia in Group D, and the women's team will compete against Turkey, Algeria, and Cyprus in Group D.
