Men’s national basketball team representing Taiwan
The Chinese Taipei men’s national basketball team (Chinese: 中華台北國家男子籃球隊) represents Taiwan (The Republic of China) in international basketball, and is controlled by the Chinese Taipei Basketball Association.[2] The team was known as Formosa prior to the implementation of the Nagoya Resolution in 1981.
Led by team leader, Yi Kuo-juei (Chinese: 易國瑞), Chinese Taipei‘s fourth-place finish at the 1959 FIBA World Championship is the second-best finish at the FIBA World Cup for an Asian team, only behind the Philippines‘ third-place finish at the 1954 edition.[3]
