2018 FIBA Asia U-18 Championship

The 2018 FIBA Under-18 Asian Championship was the 25th edition of the Asian Championship for Junior Men aged 18 years old and below. The tournament was held in Nonthaburi, Thailand from 5 to 11 August 2018.

Australia held off New Zealand, 72−63, to win their first-ever Under-18 Asian title in their debut, while China avenged their Preliminary Round loss to the Philippines, 76−57, to secure third place in the final day of competition.[1] The top four teams qualified and will represent FIBA Asia in the 2019 FIBA Under-19 Basketball World Cup in Greece.[2][3]

Format

This edition of the tournament will be using a different format as compared to what was used since 2010. While there would still be a preliminary round robin of four groups of four teams, the single-elimination final round immediately follows the preliminary round. In the final round, the teams that finished second and third in their respective groups would play in the qualifications to quarterfinals of the final round, while the group winners automatically qualify to the quarterfinals proper.[7]

Draw

Prior to the draw, the 16 teams were separated into 4 pots based on the latest FIBA Boys' World Ranking, as shown within the parenthesis.[8]

Pot 1	Pot 2	Pot 3	Pot 4
Australia (9)  China (12)  South Korea (16)  Iran (26)	Japan (27)  Chinese Taipei (31)  New Zealand (33)  Philippines (34)	Lebanon (43)  India (48)  Kazakhstan (52)  Bahrain (60)	Syria (62)  Thailand (67)  Indonesia (71)  United Arab Emirates (82)

The Draw ceremony was held on July 6 at Mono 29 Stadium in Nonthaburi, Thailand.[9] Teams in each pot were distributed into four groups, with the host nation picking their group. Thailand eventually decided to be drawn in Group C, along with Bahrain and newcomers Australia & New Zealand.[10]
