D'Tigress: Nigeria to battle USA, Belgium and Senegal for Olympic ticket

Asterios Zois, a member of the FIBA Central Board, gave the ceremony's introductory remarks.

The Draw was performed by both former Hungarian national team captain Lenke Kiss and Serbian star Jelena Brooks.

D'Tigress booked a spot at the pre-Olympic qualifiers after winning the women's Afrobasket earlier this year.

For each nation still vying for one of the 10 remaining Olympic tickets through the qualifying tournaments, it means that the Road to Paris 2024 has now been established.

Only France and the United States have a spot locked up as the 2022 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup champions and Olympic hosts, respectively but will still participate in the qualifying tournaments.

A later date will be announced for the release of the 2024 FIBA Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament game schedule.

D'Tigress were in group B along with Senegal, Belgium, and reigning Olympic Champions the United States of America.

D'Tigress, the reigning African champions, will compete for a spot in events that will take place from February 8 to 11 in Antwerp, Belgium.

D'Tigress, who are now ranked 11th in the world by FIBA, will have to beat some of the best sides to pick up a ticket to the games in Paris.

But first, in November 2023, the four teams—Canada, Puerto Rico, Colombia, and Venezuela—must compete in the FIBA Women's Olympic Pre-Qualifying Tournament, with the top two teams progressing.
