'{{short description|Sport for men consistently since 1936}} {{Infobox Olympic sport | image = Basketball pictogram.svg | size = 150 | sport = basketball | menevents = 2 | womenevents = 2 }} '''Basketball at the Summer Olympics''' has been a [[sport]] for men consistently since [[Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics|1936]]. Prior to its inclusion as a medal sport, [[basketball]] was held as a demonstration event in [[Basketball at the 1904 Summer Olympics|1904]]. Women's basketball made its debut in the [[Summer Olympics]] in [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976]]. [[FIBA]] organizes both the men's and women's [[FIBA World Olympic Qualifying Tournament]]s and the Summer Olympics basketball tournaments, which are sanctioned by the [[International Olympic Committee|IOC]].<ref>[http://www.fiba.basketball/presentation FIBA.basketball Presentation.]</ref> The United States is by far the most successful country in Olympic basketball, with [[United States men's national basketball team|United States men's teams]] having won 15 of 18 tournaments in which they participated, including seven consecutive titles from 1936 through [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968]]. [[United States women's national basketball team|United States women's]] teams have won 8 titles out of the 10 tournaments in which they competed, including six in a row from [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996]] to [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Women's tournament|2016]]. Besides the United States, [[Argentina national basketball team|Argentina]] is the only nation still in existence who has won either the men's or women's tournament. The [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]], [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] and the [[Unified Team at the 1992 Summer Olympics|Unified Team]] are the countries no longer in existence who have won the tournament. The United States are the defending champions in both men's and women's tournaments. On June 9, 2017, the Executive Board of the International Olympic Committee announced that [[3x3 (basketball)|3x3 basketball]] would become an official Olympic sport as of the [[2020 Summer Olympics]] in [[Tokyo]], [[Japan]], for both men and women.<ref>https://www.olympic.org/news/tokyo-2020-event-programme-to-see-major-boost-for-female-participation-youth-and-urban-appeal?esi=true</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=IOC adds 3-on-3 basketball to 2020 Olympics|url=http://www.nba.com/article/2017/06/09/ioc-votes-include-3-3-basketball-2020-tokyo-olympics#/|accessdate=10 November 2017|work=NBA.com|date=9 June 2017}}</ref> ==History== [[Basketball]] was invented by [[James Naismith]] in [[Springfield, Massachusetts]], in 1891. Within a few decades, the new game became popular throughout the United States as an indoor sport. The popularity spread overseas and the [[International Basketball Federation]] (FIBA) was organized in 1932 in [[Geneva]], [[Switzerland]]. ===American dominance=== Thanks in part to the effort of [[Phog Allen]]<ref>[http://www.slamonline.com/online/blogs/2008/08/before-they-were-giants/ Before They Were Giants]</ref><ref>[http://www.hoophall.com/halloffamers/bhof-phog-allen.html Basketball Hall of Fame&nbsp;– Phog Allen] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071230130907/http://www.hoophall.com/halloffamers/bhof-phog-allen.html |date=December 30, 2007 }}</ref>—a [[Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball|Kansas Jayhawks]] collegiate coach—the first Olympic basketball tournament was organized in the [[Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics|1936 Berlin Olympics]] on outdoor tennis courts. Dr. Naismith presented the medals to the top three teams. According to the Olympic rules of that time, all of the competitors were amateurs. The tournament was held indoors for the first time in [[Basketball at the 1948 Summer Olympics|1948]]. The [[United States men's national basketball team|American team]] proved its dominance, winning the first seven Olympic tournaments through [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968]], without losing a single game. While the Americans were barred from sending a team that contained players from the professional [[National Basketball Association]], they instead sent in college players; teams from some other countries sent in their best players, as some of their players were classified as "amateur" by FIBA, by earning allowances instead of wages. ===Munich and after=== The U.S. winning streak ended in [[Basketball at the 1972 Summer Olympics|1972]] in one of the most [[1972 Olympic Men's Basketball Final|controversial matches in history]], when the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] beat them in the gold-medal game by one point. The U.S. team reclaimed the gold medal in [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976]], with [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]], which had beaten the Soviet Union in the semifinal, finishing runner-up for the second time. In [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980]], with the Americans' absence due to the [[1980 Summer Olympics boycott|boycott]], Yugoslavia became the third team to win the title, after beating the Soviets anew in the semifinals and [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]] in the final. The Americans regained the title in [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984]], by beating [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]] in the final, with the Soviets [[1984 Summer Olympics boycott|boycotting]] this time. The Soviets won the gold medal for the second time in [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988]], after beating the U.S. team for the second time in the semifinal, and the Yugoslavs in the gold medal game. ===Professional era: renewed American dominance=== The advent of the state-sponsored "full-time amateur athlete" of the [[Eastern Bloc]] countries eroded the ideology of the pure [[amateur sports#Olympics|amateur]], as it put the self-financed amateurs of the Western countries at a disadvantage. The [[Soviet Union at the Olympics|Soviet Union]] entered teams of athletes who were all nominally students, soldiers, or working in a profession, but all of whom were in reality paid by the state to play in a well-developed league with modern facilities and train year-round.<ref>http://blogs.bu.edu/guidedhistory/russia-and-its-empires/tyler-benson/</ref><ref>https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP80-00810A005600130009-0.pdf</ref> In April 1989, through the leadership of Secretary General [[Borislav Stanković]], [[FIBA]] approved the rule that allowed [[National Basketball Association|NBA]] players to compete in international tournaments, including the Olympics. In the [[1992 Summer Olympics]], the [[1992 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S. "Dream Team"]] [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|won the gold medal]] with an average winning margin of 44 points per game, and without calling a timeout. By this time, the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] and [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] no longer existed, but their successor states continued to be among the leading forces. Two newly independent countries of the former Yugoslavia and Soviet Union, [[Croatia national basketball team|Croatia]] and [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]], won the silver and bronze medals respectively. The American team repeated its victory in [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|1996]] and [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000]], but its performance was not as dominant as in 1992. Since active NBA players have been allowed to compete in the Summer Olympics, the 1996 Games in [[Atlanta]] is the only instance where the Olympic host city also had a home NBA team — the [[Atlanta Hawks|Hawks]]. [[Serbia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] was the runner-up in Atlanta, and [[France national basketball team|France]] in [[Sydney]], with Lithuania winning bronze again on both occasions. The renewed dominance of the U.S. was interrupted in [[Basketball at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2004]], when the Americans barely made it to the semifinal, after losing to [[Puerto Rico national basketball team|Puerto Rico]] and [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]] in the preliminaries; [[Argentina national basketball team|Argentina]] defeated them in the semifinals, on their way to a gold medal finish, where they beat [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]] in the final, and became the fourth team to win the Olympic title. The Americans [[2008 United States men's Olympic basketball team|regrouped]] in [[Basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2008]], beating the reigning [[2006 FIBA World Championship|FIBA world champions]], [[Spain men's national basketball team|Spain]], in an intense gold medal game, with the Argentines beating the Lithuanians in the bronze medal game. The Americans and the Spaniards met again in the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012]] gold medal game, with the [[2012 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S.]] again winning, although with the closest winning margin for the American team. The [[2016 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S.]] won again in [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2016]], defeating the Serbians in the gold medal game, a rematch of the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup Final]], after eliminating the Spaniards, who settled for bronze. ===Women=== The [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|first women's tournament]] was staged in the [[1976 Summer Olympics]]. The [[Soviet Union women's national basketball team|Soviet Union]] won five straight games, becoming the inaugural champion. The next two tournaments followed the six-team round-robin format, with the Soviets defending their title in [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980]] amid the U.S.-led boycott, and the [[United States women's national basketball team|U.S.]] winning in [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984]], against the [[South Korea women's national basketball team|South Koreans]], amid the Soviet-led boycott. In [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988]], the tournament expanded into eight teams, with the Americans beating [[Yugoslavia women's national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] in the gold medal game. In [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|1992]], the [[Unified Team at the 1992 Summer Olympics#Basketball|Unified Team]], consisting of the former [[Republics of the Soviet Union|Soviet republics]], defeated [[China women's national basketball team|China]] in the gold medal game. In [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996]], the tournament settled into its current 12-team format; the U.S. has swept all of the tournaments since then, winning 48 consecutive games. ==Venues== {{Main|List of Olympic venues in basketball}} All venues were indoor stadiums except for the 1936 tournament which was held outdoors on lawn tennis courts. {{div col}} *{{flagicon|Nazi Germany}} Berlin 1936: [[Reichssportfeld]], [[Berlin]] *{{flagicon|GBR}} London 1948: [[Harringay Arena]], [[Harringay]] *{{flagicon|FIN}} Helsinki 1952: [[Tennispalatsi|Tennis Palace]] and [[Töölö Sports Hall|Messuhalli II]], both in [[Helsinki]] *{{flagicon|AUS}} Melbourne 1956: [[Royal Exhibition Building]], [[Melbourne]] *{{flagicon|ITA}} Rome 1960: [[Palazzetto dello sport|Sports Arena]] and [[PalaLottomatica|Sports Palace]], [[Rome]] *{{flagicon|JPN|1947}} Tokyo 1964: [[Yoyogi National Gymnasium]], [[Tokyo]] *{{flagicon|MEX}} Mexico City 1968: [[Palacio de los Deportes]], [[Mexico City]] *{{flagicon|FRG}} Munich 1972: [[Rudi-Sedlmayer-Halle|Basketballhalle]], [[Munich]] *{{flagicon|CAN}} Montreal 1976: [[Étienne Desmarteau Centre]] and the [[Montreal Forum]], [[Montreal]] *{{flagicon|URS}} Moscow 1980: [[CSKA Universal Sports Hall|CSCA Sports Palace]] and [[Olympic Stadium (Moscow arena)|Olimpiysky Stadium]], [[Moscow]] *{{flagicon|USA}} Los Angeles 1984: [[The Forum (Inglewood, California)|The Forum]], [[Inglewood, California|Inglewood]] *{{flagicon|KOR|1984}} Seoul 1988: [[Jamsil Arena]], [[Seoul]] *{{flagicon|ESP}} Barcelona 1992: [[Palau Municipal d'Esports de Badalona|Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona]], [[Badalona]] *{{flagicon|USA}} Atlanta 1996: [[Forbes Arena]] and the [[Georgia Dome]], [[Atlanta]] *{{flagicon|AUS}} Sydney 2000: [[The Dome (Sydney)|The Dome]] and [[Sydney SuperDome]], [[Sydney]] *{{flagicon|GRC}} Athens 2004: [[Helliniko Olympic Arena|Helliniko Indoor Arena]] and the [[Olympic Indoor Hall]], [[Athens]] *{{flagicon|CHN}} Beijing 2008: [[Beijing Wukesong Culture & Sports Center|Wukesong Indoor Stadium]], [[Beijing]] *{{flagicon|GBR}} London 2012: [[Basketball Arena (London)|Olympic Basketball Arena]]<ref>The O2 Arena was known as the North Greenwich Arena during the games due to Olympics regulations regarding corporate sponsorship of event sites.

'{{short description|Sport for men consistently since 1936}} {{Infobox Olympic sport | image = Basketball pictogram.svg | size = 150 | sport = basketball | menevents = 2 | womenevents = 2 }} '''Basketball at the Summer Olympics''' has been a [[sport]] for men consistently since [[Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics|1936]]. Prior to its inclusion as a medal sport, [[basketball]] was held as a demonstration event in [[Basketball at the 1904 Summer Olympics|1904]]. Women's basketball made its debut in the [[Summer Olympics]] in [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976]]. [[FIBA]] organizes both the men's and women's [[FIBA World Olympic Qualifying Tournament]]s and the Summer Olympics basketball tournaments, which are sanctioned by the [[International Olympic Committee|IOC]].<ref>[http://www.fiba.basketball/presentation FIBA.basketball Presentation.]</ref> The United States is by far the most successful country in Olympic basketball, with [[United States men's national basketball team|United States men's teams]] having won 15 of 18 tournaments in which they participated, including seven consecutive titles from 1936 through [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968]]. [[United States women's national basketball team|United States women's]] teams have won 8 titles out of the 10 tournaments in which they competed, including six in a row from [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996]] to [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Women's tournament|2016]]. Besides the United States, [[Argentina national basketball team|Argentina]] is the only nation still in existence who has won either the men's or women's tournament. The [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]], [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] and the [[Unified Team at the 1992 Summer Olympics|Unified Team]] are the countries no longer in existence who have won the tournament. The United States are the defending champions in both men's and women's tournaments. On June 9, 2017, the Executive Board of the International Olympic Committee announced that [[3x3 (basketball)|3x3 basketball]] would become an official Olympic sport as of the [[2020 Summer Olympics]] in [[Tokyo]], [[Japan]], for both men and women.<ref>https://www.olympic.org/news/tokyo-2020-event-programme-to-see-major-boost-for-female-participation-youth-and-urban-appeal?esi=true</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=IOC adds 3-on-3 basketball to 2020 Olympics|url=http://www.nba.com/article/2017/06/09/ioc-votes-include-3-3-basketball-2020-tokyo-olympics#/|accessdate=10 November 2017|work=NBA.com|date=9 June 2017}}</ref> ==History== [[Basketball]] was invented by [[James Naismith]] in [[Springfield, Massachusetts]], in 1891. Within a few decades, the new game became popular throughout the United States as an indoor sport. The popularity spread overseas and the [[International Basketball Federation]] (FIBA) was organized in 1932 in [[Geneva]], [[Switzerland]]. ===American dominance=== Thanks in part to the effort of [[Phog Allen]]<ref>[http://www.slamonline.com/online/blogs/2008/08/before-they-were-giants/ Before They Were Giants]</ref><ref>[http://www.hoophall.com/halloffamers/bhof-phog-allen.html Basketball Hall of Fame&nbsp;– Phog Allen] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071230130907/http://www.hoophall.com/halloffamers/bhof-phog-allen.html |date=December 30, 2007 }}</ref>—a [[Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball|Kansas Jayhawks]] collegiate coach—the first Olympic basketball tournament was organized in the [[Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics|1936 Berlin Olympics]] on outdoor tennis courts. Dr. Naismith presented the medals to the top three teams. According to the Olympic rules of that time, all of the competitors were amateurs. The tournament was held indoors for the first time in [[Basketball at the 1948 Summer Olympics|1948]]. The [[United States men's national basketball team|American team]] proved its dominance, winning the first seven Olympic tournaments through [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968]], without losing a single game. While the Americans were barred from sending a team that contained players from the professional [[National Basketball Association]], they instead sent in college players; teams from some other countries sent in their best players, as some of their players were classified as "amateur" by FIBA, by earning allowances instead of wages. ===Munich and after=== The U.S. winning streak ended in [[Basketball at the 1972 Summer Olympics|1972]] in one of the most [[1972 Olympic Men's Basketball Final|controversial matches in history]], when the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] beat them in the gold-medal game by one point. The U.S. team reclaimed the gold medal in [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976]], with [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]], which had beaten the Soviet Union in the semifinal, finishing runner-up for the second time. In [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980]], with the Americans' absence due to the [[1980 Summer Olympics boycott|boycott]], Yugoslavia became the third team to win the title, after beating the Soviets anew in the semifinals and [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]] in the final. The Americans regained the title in [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984]], by beating [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]] in the final, with the Soviets [[1984 Summer Olympics boycott|boycotting]] this time. The Soviets won the gold medal for the second time in [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988]], after beating the U.S. team for the second time in the semifinal, and the Yugoslavs in the gold medal game. ===Professional era: renewed American dominance=== The advent of the state-sponsored "full-time amateur athlete" of the [[Eastern Bloc]] countries eroded the ideology of the pure [[amateur sports#Olympics|amateur]], as it put the self-financed amateurs of the Western countries at a disadvantage. The [[Soviet Union at the Olympics|Soviet Union]] entered teams of athletes who were all nominally students, soldiers, or working in a profession, but all of whom were in reality paid by the state to play in a well-developed league with modern facilities and train year-round.<ref>http://blogs.bu.edu/guidedhistory/russia-and-its-empires/tyler-benson/</ref><ref>https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP80-00810A005600130009-0.pdf</ref> In April 1989, through the leadership of Secretary General [[Borislav Stanković]], [[FIBA]] approved the rule that allowed [[National Basketball Association|NBA]] players to compete in international tournaments, including the Olympics. In the [[1992 Summer Olympics]], the [[1992 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S. "Dream Team"]] [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|won the gold medal]] with an average winning margin of 44 points per game, and without calling a timeout. By this time, the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] and [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] no longer existed, but their successor states continued to be among the leading forces. Two newly independent countries of the former Yugoslavia and Soviet Union, [[Croatia national basketball team|Croatia]] and [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]], won the silver and bronze medals respectively. The American team repeated its victory in [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|1996]] and [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000]], but its performance was not as dominant as in 1992. Since active NBA players have been allowed to compete in the Summer Olympics, the 1996 Games in [[Atlanta]] is the only instance where the Olympic host city also had a home NBA team — the [[Atlanta Hawks|Hawks]]. [[Serbia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] was the runner-up in Atlanta, and [[France national basketball team|France]] in [[Sydney]], with Lithuania winning bronze again on both occasions. The renewed dominance of the U.S. was interrupted in [[Basketball at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2004]], when the Americans barely made it to the semifinal, after losing to [[Puerto Rico national basketball team|Puerto Rico]] and [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]] in the preliminaries; [[Argentina national basketball team|Argentina]] defeated them in the semifinals, on their way to a gold medal finish, where they beat [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]] in the final, and became the fourth team to win the Olympic title. The Americans [[2008 United States men's Olympic basketball team|regrouped]] in [[Basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2008]], beating the reigning [[2006 FIBA World Championship|FIBA world champions]], [[Spain men's national basketball team|Spain]], in an intense gold medal game, with the Argentines beating the Lithuanians in the bronze medal game. The Americans and the Spaniards met again in the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012]] gold medal game, with the [[2012 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S.]] again winning, although with the closest winning margin for the American team. The [[2016 United States men's Olympic basketball team|U.S.]] won again in [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2016]], defeating the Serbians in the gold medal game, a rematch of the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup Final]], after eliminating the Spaniards, who settled for bronze. ===Women=== The [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|first women's tournament]] was staged in the [[1976 Summer Olympics]]. The [[Soviet Union women's national basketball team|Soviet Union]] won five straight games, becoming the inaugural champion. The next two tournaments followed the six-team round-robin format, with the Soviets defending their title in [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980]] amid the U.S.-led boycott, and the [[United States women's national basketball team|U.S.]] winning in [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984]], against the [[South Korea women's national basketball team|South Koreans]], amid the Soviet-led boycott. In [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988]], the tournament expanded into eight teams, with the Americans beating [[Yugoslavia women's national basketball team|Yugoslavia]] in the gold medal game. In [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|1992]], the [[Unified Team at the 1992 Summer Olympics#Basketball|Unified Team]], consisting of the former [[Republics of the Soviet Union|Soviet republics]], defeated [[China women's national basketball team|China]] in the gold medal game. In [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996]], the tournament settled into its current 12-team format; the U.S. has swept all of the tournaments since then, winning 48 consecutive games. ==Venues== {{Main|List of Olympic venues in basketball}} All venues were indoor stadiums except for the 1936 tournament which was held outdoors on lawn tennis courts. {{div col}} *{{flagicon|Nazi Germany}} Berlin 1936: [[Reichssportfeld]], [[Berlin]] *{{flagicon|GBR}} London 1948: [[Harringay Arena]], [[Harringay]] *{{flagicon|FIN}} Helsinki 1952: [[Tennispalatsi|Tennis Palace]] and [[Töölö Sports Hall|Messuhalli II]], both in [[Helsinki]] *{{flagicon|AUS}} Melbourne 1956: [[Royal Exhibition Building]], [[Melbourne]] *{{flagicon|ITA}} Rome 1960: [[Palazzetto dello sport|Sports Arena]] and [[PalaLottomatica|Sports Palace]], [[Rome]] *{{flagicon|JPN|1947}} Tokyo 1964: [[Yoyogi National Gymnasium]], [[Tokyo]] *{{flagicon|MEX}} Mexico City 1968: [[Palacio de los Deportes]], [[Mexico City]] *{{flagicon|FRG}} Munich 1972: [[Rudi-Sedlmayer-Halle|Basketballhalle]], [[Munich]] *{{flagicon|CAN}} Montreal 1976: [[Étienne Desmarteau Centre]] and the [[Montreal Forum]], [[Montreal]] *{{flagicon|URS}} Moscow 1980: [[CSKA Universal Sports Hall|CSCA Sports Palace]] and [[Olympic Stadium (Moscow arena)|Olimpiysky Stadium]], [[Moscow]] *{{flagicon|USA}} Los Angeles 1984: [[The Forum (Inglewood, California)|The Forum]], [[Inglewood, California|Inglewood]] *{{flagicon|KOR|1984}} Seoul 1988: [[Jamsil Arena]], [[Seoul]] *{{flagicon|ESP}} Barcelona 1992: [[Palau Municipal d'Esports de Badalona|Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona]], [[Badalona]] *{{flagicon|USA}} Atlanta 1996: [[Forbes Arena]] and the [[Georgia Dome]], [[Atlanta]] *{{flagicon|AUS}} Sydney 2000: [[The Dome (Sydney)|The Dome]] and [[Sydney SuperDome]], [[Sydney]] *{{flagicon|GRC}} Athens 2004: [[Helliniko Olympic Arena|Helliniko Indoor Arena]] and the [[Olympic Indoor Hall]], [[Athens]] *{{flagicon|CHN}} Beijing 2008: [[Beijing Wukesong Culture & Sports Center|Wukesong Indoor Stadium]], [[Beijing]] *{{flagicon|GBR}} London 2012: [[Basketball Arena (London)|Olympic Basketball Arena]]<ref>The O2 Arena was known as the North Greenwich Arena during the games due to Olympics regulations regarding corporate sponsorship of event sites.

The next 16 best teams from the FIBA World Cup will join the two teams from each continent at the Olympic qualifiers. It will feature four groups of six teams, where the best team of each group will get the remaining spots at the Olympics. The continental championships will no longer be used for Olympic qualifying. ==Men's tournaments== {| class="wikitable" style="border-collapse:collapse; font-size:100%; text-align:center;" |- !
