Each team will play three round robin games in their group.
The top two teams from each group as well as the two best third-place teams will advance to the Quarter-Finals.
A draw will take place following the conclusion of the Group Phase to determine the pairings of the bracket for the Quarter-Finals.
The winners of the groups (3 teams) and the second-placed team with the best result (1 team) from the Group Phase are placed in one pot (D), while the 2 remaining second-placed teams and 2 best third-placed teams in another pot (E). Teams from the same group in the Group Phase cannot be drawn against each other in the Quarter-Finals, per FIBA.
