FIBA Basketball: Bermuda Ranked 109th
FIBA launched the new FIBA World Ranking Men, presented by Nike, with the rankings factoring in results from official games played by 149 national teams and will be updated after every window of Qualifiers and following the conclusion of top official FIBA competitions.
Bermuda are ranked 109th out of 149.
The new ranking is based on results of games ranging from regional pre-qualifiers all the way to the FIBA Basketball World Cup Final, and includes the Olympic Basketball Tournament as well as the Continental Cups.
The previous ranking was purely competition-based and only took into account the final standings of tournaments. The new ranking also recognizes the value of away wins and rewards facing and beating opponents that are higher in the ranking.
