Before you can participate to this game, you need to be registered with Zweeler Ltd. Once registered for one of the games, you can play them all!!

After registration you can start creating your team(s). The teams can be submitted and changed until the start of the game on Saturday 31 August 2019 9:30.

You have a 57 million budget to buy 8 countries of which you think are going to win the most points in the Fantasy FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019.

The FIBA Basketball World Cup has 2 group stages and a knock-out stage (quarter-finals, semi-finalsand final). In the first group stage the 32 countries are divided into 8 groups (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H) of 4 countries. All countries play 3 matches in the first group stage.

The top 2 from group A will join the top 2 from group B in group I. The top 2 from group C and D will join each other in group J. The top 2 from group E and F will join each other in group K and the top 2 from group G and H will join each other in group L.

In this second group stage the countries play 2 matches, against the teams they did not play before. The result from stage 1 against the team you played before is also added to the ranking in stage 2. After all matches are played in stage 2 the best two countries from group I, J, K and L will go to the quarter-finals.

In both group stages the countries earn points per match. They get 2 points per win and 0 points when they lose. When a game gets into OT (overtime), the losing team will still get 1 point. In the knockout stage you can win points by reaching the next round. For example: reaching the quarter-final will give a country 2 extra points.

An example: France wins all matches in the group stages. France scores 5 (3 and 2) x 2 points = 10 points. France will also get 2 points for reaching the quarter-finals, and when they go through to the semi-finals they will get another 6 points. If they lose the semi-final, they earned 10 + 2 + 6 = 18 points for your team.

See the points table for more details.
