France were ultimately left cursing a narrow defeat to Latvia in the first round of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, but now their focus is on securing a high finish. The European nation were placed in a group alongside Canada, Latvia and Lebanon and started with a 95-65 defeat to the former.

In their second game, France went into the final quarter against Latvia leading 74-62 but could not hold on to the advantage and eventually lost 86-88 which ended their second round hopes. They did end the first round on a victory, beating Lebanon 85-79 thanks to a comeback of their own.

For Iran, there was no victory in the first round, placed in a very tough group. They opened the World Cup with a 100-59 thrashing at the hands of Brazil but things were a lot closer in their second game.

Iran went into the final quarter of their game against Ivory Coast in the lead but could not hold onto the advantage, eventually losing 71-69. Then, there was a 85-65 defeat to Spain, who went perfect in the group stage, nothing to be too ashamed of. So now the attention turns to the 18th-32nd classification round.
