The Germany men's national basketball team, known in German as the Deutsche Basketballnationalmannschaft or Die Mannschaft, represents Germany in international basketball and is directed by the German Basketball Federation. Germany joined FIBA in 1934 and made its international debut as host of the first Olympic basketball tournament in Berlin in 1936. Between 1949 and 1990 FIBA recognised separate West German and East German teams, which merged after reunification. The team has won gold at the EuroBasket in 1993 and 2025, silver in 2005 and bronze in 2022, and gold at the FIBA World Cup in 2023 and bronze in 2002. Its best Olympic finish is fourth place in 2024, and it is ranked second in the FIBA World Ranking.
