Germany have climbed to second place in the latest FIBA World Ranking following their dominant run to the EuroBasket 2025 title.
The reigning FIBA World Cup champions went undefeated at the continental tournament, defeating Türkiye in the Final to secure their second-ever European crown.
Despite Germany’s rise, the United States remain No. 1 with 845.8 points. Team USA, who won gold at the Paris 2024 Olympics, kept their top ranking even after finishing third at the 2025 FIBA AmeriCup.
Serbia dropped one spot to third after a Round of 16 exit at EuroBasket, while France stayed in fourth despite also missing the Quarter-Finals.
Canada moved up to fifth, boosted by a fourth-place AmeriCup finish, while Australia climbed to sixth after winning the Asia Cup. Spain fell two positions to seventh following a disappointing group stage exit.
Argentina, Lithuania, and Brazil rounded out the top 10. Brazil rose two spots to No. 10 after winning the AmeriCup championship.
Türkiye were the biggest movers in the top 50, leaping from 27th to 12th with their EuroBasket Final appearance. Finland also improved, reaching 17th after advancing to their first-ever Semi-Finals.
In Asia, China jumped three places to 27th after reaching the Asia Cup Final, while bronze medalists Iran rose to 26th. Angola climbed into the top 30 at No. 29 after winning AfroBasket on home soil.
Mali achieved the most dramatic rise overall, soaring 18 spots to No. 65 thanks to a silver medal finish at AfroBasket 2025.
