The 2014 FIBA World Championships are starting soon and there are many countries that will be represented. One of the countries that will be there is Team Canada.

For this year’s World Championships, we will cover Team Canada’s games with a preview/game recap as well as a mini preview of what to expect from them during this tournament.
