Notes

  1. Lebanon qualified as fifth placers at the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship with the Philippines named as one of the hosts of the Olympic qualifying tournaments. However, FIBA stated that Lebanon is not "in good standing" or behind in payments with FIBA Asia and the FIBA Executive decided to invite Turkey as replacement taking its FIBA World Ranking and final standings at the EuroBasket in consideration.
  2. The Philippines also qualified by virtue of being the runner-up at the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship.
