The Ghana national basketball team represents Ghana in international competitions. It is administered by the Amateur Basketball Association of Ghana (GBBA).[1]
Ghana's senior national team only plays friendly games, despite its potentials and to the dismay of its fans. Ghanaian basketball players have played in some of the world's strongest leagues such as the US-based NCAA or the Spanish Liga ACB. The country does have a U-18 national team that competes at the FIBA Africa Under-18 Championship.
Ghana is Africa's most populous nation to never qualify for a major international basketball tournament.
