The 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualification for the FIBA Americas region began in April 2021 and concluded in February 2023. The process determined the seven teams that would participate at the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup.^[1]^[2]

Format[edit]

The qualification structure was as follows:

Pre-Qualifiers
- First round: Teams that did not enter the 2022 FIBA AmeriCup qualifiers were divided into two tournaments, based on geographical sub-zones. The three best placed teams from Central American and the Caribbean zone and the single winner from South American play-off advanced to the second round.
- Second round: Four teams advanced from the sub-zone pre-qualifiers were joined by four teams eliminated from 2022 FIBA AmeriCup qualifiers. They were divided into two groups of four teams. The group winners and runners-up advanced to qualifiers.
Qualifiers: The 12 teams that have qualified for the 2022 FIBA AmeriCup were joined by four teams advancing from the pre-qualifiers.
- First round: The 16 teams were divided into four groups of four teams to play home-and-away matches. The three best placed teams from each group advanced to the second round.
- Second round: The twelve teams were divided into two groups of six teams. Each group was formed from teams advanced from two first round groups. All results from the previous round were carried over. The three best placed teams from both groups plus fourth placed team with better record qualified for the World Cup.
