The '''Australian men's national basketball team''', known as the Boomers after the slang for a male kangaroo, represents [[Australia]] in international basketball competition.
Australia is a regional power in basketball. Placed in the relatively weak [[FIBA Oceania]] region, the Boomers's qualification for the [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|Summer Olympic Games]] and [[FIBA Basketball World Cup|FIBA World Cup]] is often a three-match competition against the other regional power, the [[New Zealand men's national basketball team|New Zealand Tall Blacks]].
Before the formation of the National Basketball League ([[National Basketball League (Australia)|NBL]]) in 1979, Boomers players were selected from state leagues around the country, with [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]], [[South Australia]], and to a lesser extent [[New South Wales]] the dominant states. After the formation of the NBL, players began to be selected almost exclusively from that competition during the 1980s and 1990s.
Occasionally players were selected from outside the NBL. [[Mark Bradtke]] made his Boomers debut in 1987 while attending the Australian Institute of Sport ([[Australian Institute of Sport|AIS]]) before he entered the NBL. [[Luc Longley]] made his debut in 1988 while playing college basketball in the United States. Other Australian players enter the [[Euroleague]] and the National Basketball Association ([[National Basketball Association|NBA]]) in the U.S. The Boomers's roster for the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup|2014 World Cup]] included five NBA players: [[Cameron Bairstow]] with the [[Chicago Bulls]], [[Aron Baynes]] with the [[Boston Celtics]], [[Matthew Dellavedova]] with the [[Milwaukee Bucks]], and [[Dante Exum]] and [[Joe Ingles]] with the [[Utah Jazz]]. Three other players were ruled out of the World Cup due to injury play in the NBA, namely [[Andrew Bogut]] of the [[Los Angeles Lakers]], rookie [[Ben Simmons]] of the [[Philadelphia 76ers]] and [[Patty Mills]] of the [[San Antonio Spurs]].
Several players on youth national teams are student athletes at the AIS or in the US college basketball system. Some players (e.g. Longley) made the senior national team while at US schools. By the early 21st century, almost half of the squad played outside Australia. For the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 London Olympic Games]], only two members of the Australian squad were based in the country – [[Peter Crawford (basketball)|Peter Crawford]] and [[Adam Gibson (basketball)|Adam Gibson]], with the latter being the only Australia-based member of the 2014 World Cup squad. The AIS has helped Australia's popularity worldwide.
Australia has participated in the most [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|Olympic men's basketball tournaments]] (14) without winning a medal. Australia has also participated in 12 [[FIBA Basketball World Cup|FIBA World Cups]] without winning a medal, making Australia the nation with the third-most appearances at the tournament without winning a medal, behind [[Canada men's national basketball team|Canada]] and [[Puerto Rico men's national basketball team|Puerto Rico]] (both 14).
==History==
===Pre-1970s===
Australia debuted on the international stage at the [[Basketball at the 1956 Summer Olympics|1956 Summer Olympic Games]] held in [[Melbourne]]. Australia did not fare well in the competition, as they defeated only two sides, ([[Singapore national basketball team|Singapore]] and [[Thailand national basketball team|Thailand]]), and finishing 12th. The seeds were sown for Australia to become a regular team in international events.<ref name="basketball.net.au">{{cite web|url=http://www.basketball.net.au/index.php?id=313|title=Basketball Australia - Basketball Australia|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref>
After not qualifying for the [[Basketball at the 1960 Summer Olympics|1960 Summer Olympic Games]] in [[Rome]], Italy, Australia returned to compete at the [[Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics|1964 Tokyo Summer Olympic Games]]. The Australians improved on their position in [[Melbourne]], to be ranked ninth at the completion of the games.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/> After failing in their bid to qualify for the [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968 Summer Olympics]] in [[Mexico City]], the Australians were left in [[international isolation]].{{fact|date=December 2020}}
===1970–80s===
They did not play again in a major international tournament until [[1970 FIBA World Championship|1970]], when the team qualified for the FIBA World Championship for the first time. The team finished in 12th place, with their sole victory coming over the [[Egypt national basketball team|United Arab Republic]].<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
At the [[Basketball at the 1972 Summer Olympics|1972 Munich Olympic Games]] Australia changed its guards. [[Lindsay Gaze]] made his coaching debut, after he had played at the [[Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics|1964 Summer Olympics]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ga/lindsay-gaze-1.html|title=Lindsay Gaze Bio, Stats, and Results|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref> Australia again finished ninth, but close defeats to [[Czechoslovakia national basketball team|Czechoslovakia]] and [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]] left the team just a few baskets away from advancing to the second round. [[Eddie Palubinskas]] was the holder of the second highest scoring average of the tournament.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
At the [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976 Montreal Olympic Games]], Eddie Palubinskas finished as the top overall scorer, and set three Olympic scoring records, including the most points scored in a single Olympics to that time, with 269 points. The Boomers defeated [[Mexican national basketball team|Mexico]], 120–117, in an overtime game, and defeated [[Japanese national basketball team|Japan]], 117–79, as they moved to the second round of the tournament for the first time, on their way to an eighth-place finish.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
In 1978, the Boomers headed to the [[Philippines]] for the [[1978 FIBA World Championship]]. Australia played their most successful tournament to that time, defeating [[Czechoslovakia national basketball team|Czechoslovakia]], the [[Dominican Republic national basketball team|Dominican Republic]], the [[Philippines men's national basketball team|Philippines]] (twice), and playing eventual gold medallist [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]], losing 105–101. The Boomers advanced to the semi-final round, and placed seventh.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
In the [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980 Moscow Olympic Games]], the Boomers played their best Olympic tournament to that date, equalling their 1976 finish of eighth place. The Boomers defeated eventual silver medallist [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]], 84–77, in the preliminary round, but due to a three-way tie with Italy and [[Cuba national basketball team|Cuba]], the team failed to advance to the final round, despite 5 wins and 2 losses.
Two years later, the [[1982 FIBA World Championship]] was held in [[Colombia]]. The Australians finished in fifth place.
The Boomers were [[captain (sports)|captained]] at the [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games]] by Phil Smyth, and introduced coach Lindsay Gaze’s 19-year-old son, [[Andrew Gaze]], to the world stage. Australia advanced to the second round, following victories over [[Brazilian national basketball team|Brazil]] and [[West German national basketball team|West Germany]]. A loss to Italy, and a 16-point win over [[Egypt national basketball team|Egypt]], left the Boomers in a must-win situation against [[Spanish national basketball team|Spain]], to advance to the medal round. Spain went up big early in the first half, but the Boomers fought back, ultimately losing by a score of 101–93, ending their medal hopes with an Olympic best seventh-place finish.
Following the 1984 Olympics, [[Adrian Hurley]] took over as team coach from Lindsay Gaze.
The [[1986 FIBA World Championship]] was a bit disappointing for Australia. Losses to [[Uruguayan national basketball team|Uruguay]], [[Angolan national basketball team|Angola]], and the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] during group play kept the Boomers from advancing, and the team finished 17th. Due to a FIBA rule allowing one naturalised player per squad at the World Championship, American born point guard [[Cal Bruton]] made his Boomers debut at the age of 32.
In 1987, the Boomers faced a home series against the Soviet Union (known as the [[Wang Laboratories|Wang]] Superchallenge) and although they lost all 6 games, the team, with all players drawn from the [[National Basketball League (Australia)|NBL]] other than [[Australian Institute of Sport]] attendee, 6'10" (208 cm) centre / power forward [[Mark Bradtke]] who was making his debut for the Boomers as a 17 year old (Bradtke would make his NBL debut in [[1988 NBL season|1988]] with the [[Adelaide 36ers]]).<ref>{{Citation|last=ncorney78|title=1987 Australian Boomers vs USSR basketball - part 1 of 7|date=2016-04-29|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZKPTSdoVTc|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
Motivated by the [[1986 FIBA World Championship]], Australia showed up to the [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988 Seoul Olympic Games]] with quite possibly its most talented roster to that date. Captained by Phil Smyth, the team included Andrew Gaze, [[Damian Keogh]], [[Darryl Pearce]], [[Ray Borner]], and future [[Chicago Bulls]] triple [[List of NBA champions|NBA Championship]] winning centre, 7'2" (218 cm) [[Luc Longley]] who was attending the [[New Mexico Lobos men's basketball|University of New Mexico]]. The Boomers breezed through the first round, losing only to gold medallist Soviet Union and silver medallist Yugoslavia. Finishing third place in their group, Australia advanced to the quarter finals, where they defeated Spain in a closely fought game, by a score of 77–74, sending the Boomers to their first ever semi-finals. They were beaten by Yugoslavia in the semi-final, and then lost to the [[United States national basketball team|United States]] (including future [[NBA Hall of Fame]] player [[David Robinson (basketball)|David Robinson]]), who ended Australia’s dream run with a 78–49 victory in the bronze-medal playoff. Despite the disappointing loss, the Boomers’ fourth-place finish was their best ever result at an Olympic Games (or World Championship) and solidified their status as a rising team.
===1990s: Gaze, Heal and Longley===
Australia flew off to [[Buenos Aires]] for the [[1990 FIBA World Championship]]. Led by Andrew Gaze’s 24.3 points per game, fourth most in the tournament, the team defeated [[Chinese national basketball team|China]], [[Brazil national basketball team|Brazil]] and [[Argentine national basketball team|Argentina]] (twice) on their way to a respectable seventh-place finish.
At the [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|1992 Barcelona Olympic Games]], the Boomers looked to prove their fourth-place run at Seoul was no fluke. In the first Summer Olympic Games since the Soviet Union’s dissolution, and the first that [[FIBA]] allowed professional basketball players to play in, Australia played to a respectable 4–4 record and sixth place. The 1992 Olympics saw the return of NBA center [[Luc Longley]] for the Boomers.
Prior to the 1992 Olympics, the Boomers played in a 3-game home series against a visiting "All-Star" team headlined by [[NBA]] and [[NCAA]] [[college basketball]] legend [[Kareem Abdul-Jabbar]]. The Boomers won the series 2–1 including attracting a then Australian basketball record 15,000 fans to the [[Rod Laver Arena|National Tennis Centre]] in Melbourne. The Boomers also played in the 1992 [[NBL (Australia) All-Star Game|NBL All-Star Game]] at the [[AIS Arena]] in [[Canberra]] against the "USA Stars" (made up of import players in the NBL) which was played on 4 July and was promoted as the "[[Independence Day (United States)|Independence Day]] Challenge". The Boomers won the game 149–132 with Andrew Gaze scoring 43 points.<ref>{{Citation|last=illusiv13|title=1992 NBL All star game - Boomers vs USA All Stars|date=2016-11-10|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRKOKalG8Ic&t=140s|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
At the [[1994 FIBA World Championship]] at [[Toronto]], Andrew Gaze starred for the Boomers, leading the tournament with an average of 23.9 points per game. In victories over [[Puerto Rican national basketball team|Puerto Rico]], [[South Korean national basketball team|South Korea]], and Cuba, Gaze scored 34, 31, and 30 points, respectively. Australia finished with a 5–3 record, and finished the tournament in fifth place. This was Phil Smyth’s last World Championship appearance as a player.
Smyth, the teams long-time captain and point guard would play one last time for the Boomers in March 1995 in Game 4 of a 5-game series against the touring [[Magic Johnson|Magic Johnson All-Stars]] in front of a packed house (12,000) at the [[Sydney Entertainment Centre]]. The Boomers lost in both [[Clipsal Powerhouse|Adelaide]] and [[Brisbane Entertainment Centre|Brisbane]] and were ultimately swept 5–0 by the All-Stars (who included former [[NBA]] stars Magic Johnson and [[Mark Aguirre]]), they pushed the visitors all the way in Game 3 at the National Tennis Centre, while Games 4 (Sydney) and 5 ([[Perth Entertainment Centre]]) went into overtime. The series however saw the Boomers without 4 of their usual starting 5 with only [[Andrew Vlahov]] who captained the side playing all 5 games. Missing for the Boomers were Andrew Gaze (playing in [[Greek Basket League|Greece]]), [[Shane Heal]], Mark Bradtke and Luc Longley who was playing for the [[Chicago Bulls]].
The [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996 Atlanta Olympic Games]] were another solid showing for Australia. Led by Andrew Gaze, and featuring [[Shane Heal]], the team rolled through the early competition, losing only to eventual silver medallist Yugoslavia, and scoring over 100 points in every other preliminary game. In the quarterfinals, the Boomers played a hard fought game against [[Croatian national basketball team|Croatia]]. The game came down to the wire, as forward [[Tony Ronaldson]] hit a 3-pointer to win the game, and advance Australia to the semi-finals. There they met the United States, who were powered by a roster of professional NBA players, and the Boomers were defeated 101–73. [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]] would defeat Australia in the bronze medal game, and the Boomers equalled their 1988 fourth-place finish.
Just prior to the 1996 Olympics, the Boomers played the USA in a warm up game. The game, played at the [[Delta Center]] in [[Salt Lake City]], was won 118–77 by the USA, though Heal topped all scorers with 28 points including hitting 8 of 12 [[Three point field goal|three pointers]]. Heal had a running battle with [[NBA]] superstar [[Charles Barkley]] during the game with the two almost coming to blows at one point, though they hugged in mutual respect on-court after the game.<ref>{{Citation|last=Mac Fryz|title=1996 Australian Boomers vs USA Dream Team III|date=2016-01-18|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fu5A6Tw6vg|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
Following their exciting run at Atlanta, the Boomers showed up in Greece, for the [[1998 FIBA World Championship]] with high hopes. Shane Heal and Andrew Gaze both finished among the top five scorers, with averages of 17.0 and 16.9 points per game, respectively; but a loss to the United States knocked Australia out of medal contention. The Boomers finished the tournament respectably with wins over [[Canadian national men's basketball team|Canada]] and Brazil, and walked away with ninth place.
===2000s: Sydney Olympics, Commonwealth Games and Bogut===
[[File:Andrew Bogut with the ball.jpg|right|thumb|130px|[[Andrew Bogut]]]]
The [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000 Summer Olympic Games]] projected to be an extremely exciting affair for the Boomers, as they played as host in [[Sydney]]. Despite losses in both of their first two games, Australia recovered nicely, and won their next four games over [[Russian national basketball team|Russia]], [[Angola national basketball team|Angola]], and [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]], to propel them into the quarter finals, where they defeated [[Italian national basketball team|Italy]]. But Australia’s first basketball medal was not to be, as [[French national basketball team|France]] won the semi final match, and Lithuania captured the bronze medal game. Although their goal of medalling was not achieved, the Boomers gave the home crowd plenty to cheer about, on their way to a fourth-place finish.
After failing to qualify for the [[2002 FIBA World Championship]], the Boomers came into the [[Basketball at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2004 Athens Olympic Games]] hungry for victory. Captained by Shane Heal, and featuring [[2005 NBA draft|future NBA Draft first pick]] [[Andrew Bogut]] in his international debut, Australia fought hard on their way to a ninth-place finish.
In early 2006, Australia entered the first ever [[Basketball at the 2006 Commonwealth Games|Commonwealth Games basketball competition]] in their home city of Melbourne and went through the tournament undefeated to claim the gold medal. Later in 2006 at the [[2006 FIBA World Championship|FIBA World Championship]] in Japan, Australia was led in scoring by Andrew Bogut, [[C.J. Bruton]], and [[Jason Smith (basketball, born 1974)|Jason Smith]]. Despite their efforts, the Boomers failed to qualify for the playoff rounds, and finished tied for ninth place.
The Boomers entered the [[Basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2008 Beijing Olympic Games]] with one of their more talented rosters to date, which included Andrew Bogut, C.J. Bruton, Captain [[Matthew Nielsen]], and [[Patty Mills]], in his international debut. Despite his youth, Mills had a hot hand, scoring over 20 points on several occasions, and leading the team with an average of 14.2 points per game. Australia made the quarter finals, but gold medallists United States put the Boomers away late in the game, ending their run with a seventh-place finish.
===2010s: Additional NBA players===
[[File:Team Australia 2014.jpeg|left|thumb|310px|Team Australia at the [[2014 FIBA World Cup]] before beating [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]] 82-75.]]
The Boomers qualified for the [[2010 FIBA World Championship]] in [[Turkey]] and placed 10th overall. In 2011, Melbourne-born number one [[2011 NBA draft|NBA draft]] pick [[Kyrie Irving]] considered declaring his international allegiance to Australia in order to compete in the 2012 Olympics, but eventually opted to wait for international selection for the [[United States men's national basketball team|United States]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.foxsports.com.au/olympics/how-close-australia-really-got-to-luring-nba-superstar-kyrie-irving-as-boomers-prepare-for-team-usa/news-story/623605d6ed01097a5c886be0919d7dfb|title=How close Australia really got to luring NBA superstar Kyrie Irving, as Boomers prepare for Team USA|access-date=16 November 2018}}</ref>
Despite Irving declining the offer to represent his country of birth, the Boomers entered the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 London Olympic Games]] with arguably their most talented roster since 2000, though they were missing their star [[centre (basketball)|centre]] Andrew Bogut, who was out with a broken ankle. Australia made the quarter finals with a 3–2 win-loss record, but gold medallists United States put the Boomers away late in the game, ending their run with a seventh-place finish again.
Following the London Olympics, [[Brett Brown]] announced his decision to step down as Boomers head coach, citing his desire to spend more time with his family in the United States. As of December 2012, [[Basketball Australia]] was yet to announce his replacement, although one of his assistants, dual [[National Basketball League (Australasia)|National Basketball League]] championship winning coach with the [[New Zealand Breakers]], [[Andrej Lemanis]], was one of the favourites to win the job.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.news.com.au/sport/more-sport/brett-brown-has-quit-as-coach-of-the-australian-mens-bastketball-team/story-fndukor0-1226505474201|title=Brett Brown has quit as coach of the Australian men's bastketball team|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref>
On 24 April 2013, Lemanis was announced as the new [[head coach]] of the Boomers.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nzbreakers.co.nz/article/id/1ga2wsnlxgx8k107tdfidvqpum |title=The Official Website of the SKYCITY Breakers - Together.Stronger |access-date=11 August 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141025045354/http://www.nzbreakers.co.nz/article/id/1ga2wsnlxgx8k107tdfidvqpum |archive-date=25 October 2014 |df=dmy }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/basketball/8589964/Lemanis-confirmed-as-Boomers-coach/|title=Andrej Lemanis confirmed as Boomers coach|date=24 April 2013|access-date=11 August 2016|via=Stuff.co.nz}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nbl.com.au/article/id/1ff4a68029w721cgoxfukiltm8 |title=NBL - The National Basketball League - |access-date=11 August 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130430212916/http://www.nbl.com.au/article/id/1ff4a68029w721cgoxfukiltm8 |archive-date=30 April 2013 |df=dmy }}</ref>
By winning the [[2013 FIBA Oceania Championship]], Australia qualified for the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup]] in Spain. Australia was drawn into Group D, alongside [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]], [[Slovenia national basketball team|Slovenia]], [[Angola national basketball team|Angola]], [[Mexico national basketball team|Mexico]], and [[South Korea national basketball team|South Korea]]. After suffering an opening round 90-80 loss to Slovenia, Australia bounced back, stringing together three consecutive wins over South Korea, Lithuania and Mexico, the first time in 16 years that Australia had won 3 consecutive matches at the FIBA World Cup.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/basketball/australias-boomers-beat-mexico-to-secure-third-win-in-a-row-at-fiba-basketball-world-cup/story-fni2u9cl-1227047015525?nk=2fd328d894a410f8c582cb6a63508f3d|title=Boomers dispatch Mexico at World Cup|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/sep/04/australia-claim-third-straight-win-at-basketball-world-cup-against-mexico|title=Australia claim third straight win at Basketball World Cup against Mexico|first=Australian Associated|last=Press|date=3 September 2014|access-date=11 August 2016|via=The Guardian}}</ref> However, in their next match Australia suffered a 91–83 loss to Angola, which came despite leading by 15 points in the middle of the third quarter. This result, combined with Lithuania's 67-64 win over Slovenia, meant that Australia finished third in their group, qualifying for the knockout stage of the tournament.

Because Australia would finish third by losing, and that finishing third would benefit Australia more than finishing second, combined with the absences of fit key players [[Aron Baynes]] and [[Joe Ingles]] led to allegations that Australia deliberately lost their game against Angola in order to finish third in their group, and as a result, avoid the [[United States men's national basketball team|United States]] until the semi-finals, with Slovenian basketballer [[Goran Dragić]] posting "Basketball is a beautiful sport, there is no room for fixing the game like today Australia vs Angola!! @FIBA should do something about that!" on Twitter. However, these claims were denied by Boomers coach Andrej Lemanis.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.aussiehoopla.com/australian-boomers-tank-angola/|title=Did the Australian Boomers ‘tank’ against Angola?|work=Aussie Hoopla|access-date=2017-07-13|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bendigoadvertiser.com.au/story/2539063/boomers-deny-tank-accusation/|title=Boomers deny 'tank' accusation|first=Australian Community Media - Fairfax|last=Media|date=5 September 2014|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.smh.com.au/sport/basketball/boomers-world-cup-loss-to-minnow-angola-enables-them-to-miss-usa-side-of-draw-20140905-10cqy0.html|title=Boomers' World Cup loss to minnow Angola enables them to miss USA side of draw|first=Roy|last=Ward|date=5 September 2014|access-date=10 October 2017|via=The Sydney Morning Herald}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.smh.com.au/sport/basketball/boomers-deny-tanking-after-loss-to-angola-at-world-championships-20140905-10cqoi.html|title=Boomers deny tanking after loss to Angola at world championships|first=Joe|last=Barton|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/sep/05/australias-boomers-deny-tanking-at-basketball-world-cup| title=Australia's Boomers deny ‘tanking’ at Basketball World Cup|first=Australian Associated|last=Press|date=4 September 2014|access-date=11 August 2016|via=The Guardian}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |url=http://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/angola-storm-over-boomers-in-world-cup-shock/story-e6frg7mf-1227048650390|title=Boomers accused of World Cup tank|date=2014-09-05|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theroar.com.au/2014/09/05/the-boomers-loss-to-angola-tournament-strategy-or-un-australian-tanking/|title=Boomers' loss to Angola: ‘Tournament strategy’ or ‘un-Australian’?|date=4 September 2014|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref> On 26 November 2014, Australia was cleared of tanking by FIBA.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-11-27/boomers-cleared-of-tanking/5920938| title=Boomers cleared of tanking by FIBA|date=26 November 2014|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://au.sports.yahoo.com/basketball/news/article/-/25626101/australia-cleared-of-tanking-angola-match/ |title=Archived copy |access-date=2014-12-01 |url-status=dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20141206060033/https://au.sports.yahoo.com/basketball/news/article/-/25626101/australia-cleared-of-tanking-angola-match/ |archive-date= 6 December 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sportal.com.au/basketball/news/australia-cleared-of-tanking-at-fiba-basketball-world-cup/1qnp1qz5qztoz15ofkg4mm518i |title=Archived copy |access-date=2014-12-01 |url-status=dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20141204170144/http://www.sportal.com.au/basketball/news/australia-cleared-of-tanking-at-fiba-basketball-world-cup/1qnp1qz5qztoz15ofkg4mm518i |archive-date= 4 December 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://espn.go.com/olympics/basketball/story/_/id/11941823/fiba-clears-australia-tanking-world-cup|title=FIBA clears Aussies of tanking at World Cup|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref>
Australia met World No. 7 [[Turkey national basketball team|Turkey]] in the knockout stage of the tournament. Australia suffered a 65-64 loss to Turkey, ending their World Cup campaign, meaning that for the 11th World Cup, Australia would return home empty handed.
Leading into the [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics|2016 Rio Olympics]], Australia saw a surge in locals being drafted into the NBA. Along with former number 1 NBA draft pick [[Andrew Bogut]], [[Dante Exum]] was taken with the fifth pick in the [[2014 NBA draft]] and [[Ben Simmons]] was selected with the first pick in the [[2016 NBA draft]], adding to already established Australian NBA players in [[Patty Mills]], [[Matthew Dellavedova]], [[Joe Ingles]] and [[Aron Baynes]]. Forward [[Thon Maker]] was also drafted with the 10th pick in the 2016 NBA draft. Despite Exum, Maker and Simmons electing not to compete in the 2016 Olympics, the Australians equaled their best ever performance by reaching the semifinals and losing their bronze medal playoff with [[Spain men's national basketball team|Spain]] by one point.
====2017: Move into Asian basketball====
In August 2015, [[FIBA]] announced Australia would be joining the [[FIBA Asia|Asian basketball zone]] for future tournaments, starting with the [[2017 FIBA Asia Cup]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.smh.com.au/sport/basketball/boomers-to-move-into-asia-play-regular-games-as-part-of-fiba-changes-20150814-giz9iv.html| title=Boomers to move into Asia, play regular games as part of FIBA changes| last=Ward|first=Roy| date=2015-08-14|work=The Sydney Morning Herald|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref> The Boomers were victorious in their inaugural Asia Cup appearance<ref>{{cite web |title=Australian Boomers claim first FIBA Asia Cup but no player makes all-star five |url=https://www.smh.com.au/sport/basketball/australian-boomers-claimed-first-fiba-asia-cup-but-no-players-make-allstar-five-20170821-gy0gd9.html|website=smh.com.au |access-date=16 November 2018}}</ref> and turned their attention to [[2019 FIBA World Cup]] qualifiers against Asian opposition. In July 2018, during the 3rd quarter of their game against the [[Philippines men's national basketball team|Philippines]] for the [[2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualification (Asia)]], Filipino player [[Roger Pogoy]] hit [[Chris Goulding]] with a hard foul causing teammate [[Daniel Kickert]] to retaliate with an elbow strike which sparked a [[Philippines–Australia basketball brawl|full-scale brawl]] between the Australians and the Filipinos.<ref>{{cite web |title=Philippines v Australia basketball: Mass brawl at World Cup qualifier |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/basketball/44688264 |website=BBC.com |date=3 July 2018}}</ref> Suspensions and fines were handed off to those involved including players from both teams, Filipino coaches and the referees for failing to control the game.<ref>{{cite web |title=Players, coaches and referees banned after mass brawl in FIBA World Cup qualifier |url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1067672/players-coaches-and-referees-banned-after-mass-brawl-in-fiba-world-cup-qualifier |website=insidethegames.com |access-date=22 August 2018}}</ref>

The '''Australian men's national basketball team''', known as the Boomers after the slang for a male kangaroo, represents [[Australia]] in international basketball competition.
Australia is a regional power in basketball. Placed in the relatively weak [[FIBA Oceania]] region, the Boomers's qualification for the [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|Summer Olympic Games]] and [[FIBA Basketball World Cup|FIBA World Cup]] is often a three-match competition against the other regional power, the [[New Zealand men's national basketball team|New Zealand Tall Blacks]].
Before the formation of the National Basketball League ([[National Basketball League (Australia)|NBL]]) in 1979, Boomers players were selected from state leagues around the country, with [[Victoria (Australia)|Victoria]], [[South Australia]], and to a lesser extent [[New South Wales]] the dominant states. After the formation of the NBL, players began to be selected almost exclusively from that competition during the 1980s and 1990s.
Occasionally players were selected from outside the NBL. [[Mark Bradtke]] made his Boomers debut in 1987 while attending the Australian Institute of Sport ([[Australian Institute of Sport|AIS]]) before he entered the NBL. [[Luc Longley]] made his debut in 1988 while playing college basketball in the United States. Other Australian players enter the [[Euroleague]] and the National Basketball Association ([[National Basketball Association|NBA]]) in the U.S. The Boomers's roster for the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup|2014 World Cup]] included five NBA players: [[Cameron Bairstow]] with the [[Chicago Bulls]], [[Aron Baynes]] with the [[Boston Celtics]], [[Matthew Dellavedova]] with the [[Milwaukee Bucks]], and [[Dante Exum]] and [[Joe Ingles]] with the [[Utah Jazz]]. Three other players were ruled out of the World Cup due to injury play in the NBA, namely [[Andrew Bogut]] of the [[Los Angeles Lakers]], rookie [[Ben Simmons]] of the [[Philadelphia 76ers]] and [[Patty Mills]] of the [[San Antonio Spurs]].
Several players on youth national teams are student athletes at the AIS or in the US college basketball system. Some players (e.g. Longley) made the senior national team while at US schools. By the early 21st century, almost half of the squad played outside Australia. For the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 London Olympic Games]], only two members of the Australian squad were based in the country – [[Peter Crawford (basketball)|Peter Crawford]] and [[Adam Gibson (basketball)|Adam Gibson]], with the latter being the only Australia-based member of the 2014 World Cup squad. The AIS has helped Australia's popularity worldwide.
Australia has participated in the most [[Basketball at the Summer Olympics|Olympic men's basketball tournaments]] (14) without winning a medal. Australia has also participated in 12 [[FIBA Basketball World Cup|FIBA World Cups]] without winning a medal, making Australia the nation with the third-most appearances at the tournament without winning a medal, behind [[Canada men's national basketball team|Canada]] and [[Puerto Rico men's national basketball team|Puerto Rico]] (both 14).
==History==
===Pre-1970s===
Australia debuted on the international stage at the [[Basketball at the 1956 Summer Olympics|1956 Summer Olympic Games]] held in [[Melbourne]]. Australia did not fare well in the competition, as they defeated only two sides, ([[Singapore national basketball team|Singapore]] and [[Thailand national basketball team|Thailand]]), and finishing 12th. The seeds were sown for Australia to become a regular team in international events.<ref name="basketball.net.au">{{cite web|url=http://www.basketball.net.au/index.php?id=313|title=Basketball Australia - Basketball Australia|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref>
After not qualifying for the [[Basketball at the 1960 Summer Olympics|1960 Summer Olympic Games]] in [[Rome]], Italy, Australia returned to compete at the [[Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics|1964 Tokyo Summer Olympic Games]]. The Australians improved on their position in [[Melbourne]], to be ranked ninth at the completion of the games.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/> After failing in their bid to qualify for the [[Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics|1968 Summer Olympics]] in [[Mexico City]], the Australians were left in [[international isolation]].{{fact|date=December 2020}}
===1970–80s===
They did not play again in a major international tournament until [[1970 FIBA World Championship|1970]], when the team qualified for the FIBA World Championship for the first time. The team finished in 12th place, with their sole victory coming over the [[Egypt national basketball team|United Arab Republic]].<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
At the [[Basketball at the 1972 Summer Olympics|1972 Munich Olympic Games]] Australia changed its guards. [[Lindsay Gaze]] made his coaching debut, after he had played at the [[Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics|1964 Summer Olympics]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ga/lindsay-gaze-1.html|title=Lindsay Gaze Bio, Stats, and Results|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref> Australia again finished ninth, but close defeats to [[Czechoslovakia national basketball team|Czechoslovakia]] and [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]] left the team just a few baskets away from advancing to the second round. [[Eddie Palubinskas]] was the holder of the second highest scoring average of the tournament.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
At the [[Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics|1976 Montreal Olympic Games]], Eddie Palubinskas finished as the top overall scorer, and set three Olympic scoring records, including the most points scored in a single Olympics to that time, with 269 points. The Boomers defeated [[Mexican national basketball team|Mexico]], 120–117, in an overtime game, and defeated [[Japanese national basketball team|Japan]], 117–79, as they moved to the second round of the tournament for the first time, on their way to an eighth-place finish.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
In 1978, the Boomers headed to the [[Philippines]] for the [[1978 FIBA World Championship]]. Australia played their most successful tournament to that time, defeating [[Czechoslovakia national basketball team|Czechoslovakia]], the [[Dominican Republic national basketball team|Dominican Republic]], the [[Philippines men's national basketball team|Philippines]] (twice), and playing eventual gold medallist [[Yugoslavia national basketball team|Yugoslavia]], losing 105–101. The Boomers advanced to the semi-final round, and placed seventh.<ref name="basketball.net.au"/>
In the [[Basketball at the 1980 Summer Olympics|1980 Moscow Olympic Games]], the Boomers played their best Olympic tournament to that date, equalling their 1976 finish of eighth place. The Boomers defeated eventual silver medallist [[Italy national basketball team|Italy]], 84–77, in the preliminary round, but due to a three-way tie with Italy and [[Cuba national basketball team|Cuba]], the team failed to advance to the final round, despite 5 wins and 2 losses.
Two years later, the [[1982 FIBA World Championship]] was held in [[Colombia]]. The Australians finished in fifth place.
The Boomers were [[captain (sports)|captained]] at the [[Basketball at the 1984 Summer Olympics|1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games]] by Phil Smyth, and introduced coach Lindsay Gaze’s 19-year-old son, [[Andrew Gaze]], to the world stage. Australia advanced to the second round, following victories over [[Brazilian national basketball team|Brazil]] and [[West German national basketball team|West Germany]]. A loss to Italy, and a 16-point win over [[Egypt national basketball team|Egypt]], left the Boomers in a must-win situation against [[Spanish national basketball team|Spain]], to advance to the medal round. Spain went up big early in the first half, but the Boomers fought back, ultimately losing by a score of 101–93, ending their medal hopes with an Olympic best seventh-place finish.
Following the 1984 Olympics, [[Adrian Hurley]] took over as team coach from Lindsay Gaze.
The [[1986 FIBA World Championship]] was a bit disappointing for Australia. Losses to [[Uruguayan national basketball team|Uruguay]], [[Angolan national basketball team|Angola]], and the [[Soviet Union national basketball team|Soviet Union]] during group play kept the Boomers from advancing, and the team finished 17th. Due to a FIBA rule allowing one naturalised player per squad at the World Championship, American born point guard [[Cal Bruton]] made his Boomers debut at the age of 32.
In 1987, the Boomers faced a home series against the Soviet Union (known as the [[Wang Laboratories|Wang]] Superchallenge) and although they lost all 6 games, the team, with all players drawn from the [[National Basketball League (Australia)|NBL]] other than [[Australian Institute of Sport]] attendee, 6'10" (208 cm) centre / power forward [[Mark Bradtke]] who was making his debut for the Boomers as a 17 year old (Bradtke would make his NBL debut in [[1988 NBL season|1988]] with the [[Adelaide 36ers]]).<ref>{{Citation|last=ncorney78|title=1987 Australian Boomers vs USSR basketball - part 1 of 7|date=2016-04-29|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZKPTSdoVTc|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
Motivated by the [[1986 FIBA World Championship]], Australia showed up to the [[Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics|1988 Seoul Olympic Games]] with quite possibly its most talented roster to that date. Captained by Phil Smyth, the team included Andrew Gaze, [[Damian Keogh]], [[Darryl Pearce]], [[Ray Borner]], and future [[Chicago Bulls]] triple [[List of NBA champions|NBA Championship]] winning centre, 7'2" (218 cm) [[Luc Longley]] who was attending the [[New Mexico Lobos men's basketball|University of New Mexico]]. The Boomers breezed through the first round, losing only to gold medallist Soviet Union and silver medallist Yugoslavia. Finishing third place in their group, Australia advanced to the quarter finals, where they defeated Spain in a closely fought game, by a score of 77–74, sending the Boomers to their first ever semi-finals. They were beaten by Yugoslavia in the semi-final, and then lost to the [[United States national basketball team|United States]] (including future [[NBA Hall of Fame]] player [[David Robinson (basketball)|David Robinson]]), who ended Australia’s dream run with a 78–49 victory in the bronze-medal playoff. Despite the disappointing loss, the Boomers’ fourth-place finish was their best ever result at an Olympic Games (or World Championship) and solidified their status as a rising team.
===1990s: Gaze, Heal and Longley===
Australia flew off to [[Buenos Aires]] for the [[1990 FIBA World Championship]]. Led by Andrew Gaze’s 24.3 points per game, fourth most in the tournament, the team defeated [[Chinese national basketball team|China]], [[Brazil national basketball team|Brazil]] and [[Argentine national basketball team|Argentina]] (twice) on their way to a respectable seventh-place finish.
At the [[Basketball at the 1992 Summer Olympics|1992 Barcelona Olympic Games]], the Boomers looked to prove their fourth-place run at Seoul was no fluke. In the first Summer Olympic Games since the Soviet Union’s dissolution, and the first that [[FIBA]] allowed professional basketball players to play in, Australia played to a respectable 4–4 record and sixth place. The 1992 Olympics saw the return of NBA center [[Luc Longley]] for the Boomers.
Prior to the 1992 Olympics, the Boomers played in a 3-game home series against a visiting "All-Star" team headlined by [[NBA]] and [[NCAA]] [[college basketball]] legend [[Kareem Abdul-Jabbar]]. The Boomers won the series 2–1 including attracting a then Australian basketball record 15,000 fans to the [[Rod Laver Arena|National Tennis Centre]] in Melbourne. The Boomers also played in the 1992 [[NBL (Australia) All-Star Game|NBL All-Star Game]] at the [[AIS Arena]] in [[Canberra]] against the "USA Stars" (made up of import players in the NBL) which was played on 4 July and was promoted as the "[[Independence Day (United States)|Independence Day]] Challenge". The Boomers won the game 149–132 with Andrew Gaze scoring 43 points.<ref>{{Citation|last=illusiv13|title=1992 NBL All star game - Boomers vs USA All Stars|date=2016-11-10|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRKOKalG8Ic&t=140s|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
At the [[1994 FIBA World Championship]] at [[Toronto]], Andrew Gaze starred for the Boomers, leading the tournament with an average of 23.9 points per game. In victories over [[Puerto Rican national basketball team|Puerto Rico]], [[South Korean national basketball team|South Korea]], and Cuba, Gaze scored 34, 31, and 30 points, respectively. Australia finished with a 5–3 record, and finished the tournament in fifth place. This was Phil Smyth’s last World Championship appearance as a player.
Smyth, the teams long-time captain and point guard would play one last time for the Boomers in March 1995 in Game 4 of a 5-game series against the touring [[Magic Johnson|Magic Johnson All-Stars]] in front of a packed house (12,000) at the [[Sydney Entertainment Centre]]. The Boomers lost in both [[Clipsal Powerhouse|Adelaide]] and [[Brisbane Entertainment Centre|Brisbane]] and were ultimately swept 5–0 by the All-Stars (who included former [[NBA]] stars Magic Johnson and [[Mark Aguirre]]), they pushed the visitors all the way in Game 3 at the National Tennis Centre, while Games 4 (Sydney) and 5 ([[Perth Entertainment Centre]]) went into overtime. The series however saw the Boomers without 4 of their usual starting 5 with only [[Andrew Vlahov]] who captained the side playing all 5 games. Missing for the Boomers were Andrew Gaze (playing in [[Greek Basket League|Greece]]), [[Shane Heal]], Mark Bradtke and Luc Longley who was playing for the [[Chicago Bulls]].
The [[Basketball at the 1996 Summer Olympics|1996 Atlanta Olympic Games]] were another solid showing for Australia. Led by Andrew Gaze, and featuring [[Shane Heal]], the team rolled through the early competition, losing only to eventual silver medallist Yugoslavia, and scoring over 100 points in every other preliminary game. In the quarterfinals, the Boomers played a hard fought game against [[Croatian national basketball team|Croatia]]. The game came down to the wire, as forward [[Tony Ronaldson]] hit a 3-pointer to win the game, and advance Australia to the semi-finals. There they met the United States, who were powered by a roster of professional NBA players, and the Boomers were defeated 101–73. [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]] would defeat Australia in the bronze medal game, and the Boomers equalled their 1988 fourth-place finish.
Just prior to the 1996 Olympics, the Boomers played the USA in a warm up game. The game, played at the [[Delta Center]] in [[Salt Lake City]], was won 118–77 by the USA, though Heal topped all scorers with 28 points including hitting 8 of 12 [[Three point field goal|three pointers]]. Heal had a running battle with [[NBA]] superstar [[Charles Barkley]] during the game with the two almost coming to blows at one point, though they hugged in mutual respect on-court after the game.<ref>{{Citation|last=Mac Fryz|title=1996 Australian Boomers vs USA Dream Team III|date=2016-01-18|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fu5A6Tw6vg|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref>
Following their exciting run at Atlanta, the Boomers showed up in Greece, for the [[1998 FIBA World Championship]] with high hopes. Shane Heal and Andrew Gaze both finished among the top five scorers, with averages of 17.0 and 16.9 points per game, respectively; but a loss to the United States knocked Australia out of medal contention. The Boomers finished the tournament respectably with wins over [[Canadian national men's basketball team|Canada]] and Brazil, and walked away with ninth place.

The [[Basketball at the 2000 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2000 Summer Olympic Games]] projected to be an extremely exciting affair for the Boomers, as they played as host in [[Sydney]]. Despite losses in both of their first two games, Australia recovered nicely, and won their next four games over [[Russian national basketball team|Russia]], [[Angola national basketball team|Angola]], and [[Spain national basketball team|Spain]], to propel them into the quarter finals, where they defeated [[Italian national basketball team|Italy]]. But Australia’s first basketball medal was not to be, as [[French national basketball team|France]] won the semi final match, and Lithuania captured the bronze medal game. Although their goal of medalling was not achieved, the Boomers gave the home crowd plenty to cheer about, on their way to a fourth-place finish.
After failing to qualify for the [[2002 FIBA World Championship]], the Boomers came into the [[Basketball at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2004 Athens Olympic Games]] hungry for victory. Captained by Shane Heal, and featuring [[2005 NBA draft|future NBA Draft first pick]] [[Andrew Bogut]] in his international debut, Australia fought hard on their way to a ninth-place finish.
In early 2006, Australia entered the first ever [[Basketball at the 2006 Commonwealth Games|Commonwealth Games basketball competition]] in their home city of Melbourne and went through the tournament undefeated to claim the gold medal. Later in 2006 at the [[2006 FIBA World Championship|FIBA World Championship]] in Japan, Australia was led in scoring by Andrew Bogut, [[C.J. Bruton]], and [[Jason Smith (basketball, born 1974)|Jason Smith]]. Despite their efforts, the Boomers failed to qualify for the playoff rounds, and finished tied for ninth place.
The Boomers entered the [[Basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2008 Beijing Olympic Games]] with one of their more talented rosters to date, which included Andrew Bogut, C.J. Bruton, Captain [[Matthew Nielsen]], and [[Patty Mills]], in his international debut. Despite his youth, Mills had a hot hand, scoring over 20 points on several occasions, and leading the team with an average of 14.2 points per game. Australia made the quarter finals, but gold medallists United States put the Boomers away late in the game, ending their run with a seventh-place finish.

The Boomers qualified for the [[2010 FIBA World Championship]] in [[Turkey]] and placed 10th overall. In 2011, Melbourne-born number one [[2011 NBA draft|NBA draft]] pick [[Kyrie Irving]] considered declaring his international allegiance to Australia in order to compete in the 2012 Olympics, but eventually opted to wait for international selection for the [[United States men's national basketball team|United States]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.foxsports.com.au/olympics/how-close-australia-really-got-to-luring-nba-superstar-kyrie-irving-as-boomers-prepare-for-team-usa/news-story/623605d6ed01097a5c886be0919d7dfb|title=How close Australia really got to luring NBA superstar Kyrie Irving, as Boomers prepare for Team USA|access-date=16 November 2018}}</ref>
Despite Irving declining the offer to represent his country of birth, the Boomers entered the [[Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|2012 London Olympic Games]] with arguably their most talented roster since 2000, though they were missing their star [[centre (basketball)|centre]] Andrew Bogut, who was out with a broken ankle. Australia made the quarter finals with a 3–2 win-loss record, but gold medallists United States put the Boomers away late in the game, ending their run with a seventh-place finish again.
Following the London Olympics, [[Brett Brown]] announced his decision to step down as Boomers head coach, citing his desire to spend more time with his family in the United States. As of December 2012, [[Basketball Australia]] was yet to announce his replacement, although one of his assistants, dual [[National Basketball League (Australasia)|National Basketball League]] championship winning coach with the [[New Zealand Breakers]], [[Andrej Lemanis]], was one of the favourites to win the job.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.news.com.au/sport/more-sport/brett-brown-has-quit-as-coach-of-the-australian-mens-bastketball-team/story-fndukor0-1226505474201|title=Brett Brown has quit as coach of the Australian men's bastketball team|access-date=11 August 2016}}</ref>

By winning the [[2013 FIBA Oceania Championship]], Australia qualified for the [[2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup]] in Spain. Australia was drawn into Group D, alongside [[Lithuania men's national basketball team|Lithuania]], [[Slovenia national basketball team|Slovenia]], [[Angola national basketball team|Angola]], [[Mexico national basketball team|Mexico]], and [[South Korea national basketball team|South Korea]]. After suffering an opening round 90-80 loss to Slovenia, Australia bounced back, stringing together three consecutive wins over South Korea, Lithuania and Mexico, the first time in 16 years that Australia had won 3 consecutive matches at the FIBA World Cup.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/basketball/australias-boomers-beat-mexico-to-secure-third-win-in-a-row-at-fiba-basketball-world-cup/story-fni2u9cl-1227047015525?nk=2fd328d894a410f8c582cb6a63508f3d|title=Boomers dispatch Mexico at World Cup|access-date=2017-07-13}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2014/sep/04/australia-claim-third-straight-win-at-basketball-world-cup-against-mexico|title=Australia claim third straight win at Basketball World Cup against Mexico|first=Australian Associated|last=Press|date=3 September 2014|access-date=11 August 2016|via=The Guardian}}</ref> However, in their next match Australia suffered a 91–83 loss to Angola, which came despite leading by 15 points in the middle of the third quarter. This result, combined with Lithuania's 67-64 win over Slovenia, meant that Australia finished third in their group, qualifying for the knockout stage of the tournament.

Because Australia would finish third by losing, and that finishing third would benefit Australia more than finishing second, combined with the absences of fit key players [[Aron Baynes]] and [[Joe Ingles]] led to allegations that Australia deliberately lost their game against Angola in order to finish third in their group, and as a result, avoid the [[United States men's national basketball team|United States]] until the semi-finals, with Slovenian basketballer [[Goran Dragić]] posting "Basketball is a beautiful sport, there is no room for fixing the game like today Australia vs Angola!! @FIBA should do something about that!" on Twitter.

Australia met World No. 7 [[Turkey national basketball team|Turkey]] in the knockout stage of the tournament. Australia suffered a 65-64 loss to Turkey, ending their World Cup campaign, meaning that for the 11th World Cup, Australia would return home empty handed.
Leading into the [[Basketball at the 2016 Summer Olympics|2016 Rio Olympics]], Australia saw a surge in locals being drafted into the NBA. Along with former number 1 NBA draft pick [[Andrew Bogut]], [[Dante Exum]] was taken with the fifth pick in the [[2014 NBA draft]] and [[Ben Simmons]] was selected with the first pick in the [[2016 NBA draft]], adding to already established Australian NBA players in [[Patty Mills]], [[Matthew Dellavedova]], [[Joe Ingles]] and [[Aron Baynes]]. Forward [[Thon Maker]] was also drafted with the 10th pick in the 2016 NBA draft. Despite Exum, Maker and Simmons electing not to compete in the 2016 Olympics, the Australians equaled their best ever performance by reaching the semifinals and losing their bronze medal playoff with [[Spain men's national basketball team|Spain]] by one point.
====2017: Move into Asian basketball====

<p>The <b>Australian men's national basketball team</b>, known as the Boomers after the slang for a male kangaroo, represents <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Australia" title="Australia">Australia</a> in international basketball competition.
</p><p>Australia is a regional power in basketball. Placed in the relatively weak <a href="/enwiki/wiki/FIBA_Oceania" title="FIBA Oceania">FIBA Oceania</a> region, the Boomers's qualification for the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Basketball_at_the_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the Summer Olympics">Summer Olympic Games</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/FIBA_Basketball_World_Cup" title="FIBA Basketball World Cup">FIBA World Cup</a> is often a three-match competition against the other regional power, the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/New_Zealand_men%27s_national_basketball_team" title="New Zealand men's national basketball team">New Zealand Tall Blacks</a>.
Before the formation of the National Basketball League (<a href="/enwiki/wiki/National_Basketball_League_(Australia)" title="National Basketball League (Australia)">NBL</a>) in 1979, Boomers players were selected from state leagues around the country, with <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Victoria_(Australia)" title="Victoria (Australia)">Victoria</a>, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/South_Australia" title="South Australia">South Australia</a>, and to a lesser extent <a href="/enwiki/wiki/New_South_Wales" title="New South Wales">New South Wales</a> the dominant states. After the formation of the NBL, players began to be selected almost exclusively from that competition during the 1980s and 1990s.
</p><p>Occasionally players were selected from outside the NBL. <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Mark_Bradtke" title="Mark Bradtke">Mark Bradtke</a> made his Boomers debut in 1987 while attending the Australian Institute of Sport (<a href="/enwiki/wiki/Australian_Institute_of_Sport" title="Australian Institute of Sport">AIS</a>) before he entered the NBL. <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Luc_Longley" title="Luc Longley">Luc Longley</a> made his debut in 1988 while playing college basketball in the United States. Other Australian players enter the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Euroleague" class="mw-redirect" title="Euroleague">Euroleague</a> and the National Basketball Association (<a href="/enwiki/wiki/National_Basketball_Association" title="National Basketball Association">NBA</a>) in the U.S. The Boomers's roster for the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/2014_FIBA_Basketball_World_Cup" title="2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup">2014 World Cup</a> included five NBA players: <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Cameron_Bairstow" title="Cameron Bairstow">Cameron Bairstow</a> with the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Chicago_Bulls" title="Chicago Bulls">Chicago Bulls</a>, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Aron_Baynes" title="Aron Baynes">Aron Baynes</a> with the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Boston_Celtics" title="Boston Celtics">Boston Celtics</a>, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Matthew_Dellavedova" title="Matthew Dellavedova">Matthew Dellavedova</a> with the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Milwaukee_Bucks" title="Milwaukee Bucks">Milwaukee Bucks</a>, and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Dante_Exum" title="Dante Exum">Dante Exum</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Joe_Ingles" title="Joe Ingles">Joe Ingles</a> with the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Utah_Jazz" title="Utah Jazz">Utah Jazz</a>. Three other players were ruled out of the World Cup due to injury play in the NBA, namely <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Andrew_Bogut" title="Andrew Bogut">Andrew Bogut</a> of the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Los_Angeles_Lakers" title="Los Angeles Lakers">Los Angeles Lakers</a>, rookie <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Ben_Simmons" title="Ben Simmons">Ben Simmons</a> of the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Philadelphia_76ers" title="Philadelphia 76ers">Philadelphia 76ers</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Patty_Mills" title="Patty Mills">Patty Mills</a> of the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/San_Antonio_Spurs" title="San Antonio Spurs">San Antonio Spurs</a>.
</p><p>Several players on youth national teams are student athletes at the AIS or in the US college basketball system. Some players (e.g. Longley) made the senior national team while at US schools. By the early 21st century, almost half of the squad played outside Australia. For the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Basketball_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_tournament" title="Basketball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament">2012 London Olympic Games</a>, only two members of the Australian squad were based in the country – <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Peter_Crawford_(basketball)" title="Peter Crawford (basketball)">Peter Crawford</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Adam_Gibson_(basketball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Adam Gibson (basketball)">Adam Gibson</a>, with the latter being the only Australia-based member of the 2014 World Cup squad. The AIS has helped Australia's popularity worldwide.
</p><p>Australia has participated in the most <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Basketball_at_the_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the Summer Olympics">Olympic men's basketball tournaments</a> (14) without winning a medal. Australia has also participated in 12 <a href="/enwiki/wiki/FIBA_Basketball_World_Cup" title="FIBA Basketball World Cup">FIBA World Cups</a> without winning a medal, making Australia the nation with the third-most appearances at the tournament without winning a medal, behind <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Canada_men%27s_national_basketball_team" title="Canada men's national basketball team">Canada</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Puerto_Rico_men%27s_national_basketball_team" title="Puerto Rico men's national basketball team">Puerto Rico</a> (both 14).

The Boomers defeated eventual silver medallist <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Italy_national_basketball_team" class="mw-redirect" title="Italy national basketball team">Italy</a>, 84–77, in the preliminary round, but due to a three-way tie with Italy and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Cuba_national_basketball_team" class="mw-redirect" title="Cuba national basketball team">Cuba</a>, the team failed to advance to the final round, despite 5 wins and 2 losses.

</p><p>The <a href="/enwiki/wiki/1986_FIBA_World_Championship" title="1986 FIBA World Championship">1986 FIBA World Championship</a> was a bit disappointing for Australia.
