LUANDA (FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 African Qualifiers) - The Angolan Basketball Federation on Thursday announced a 12-man provisional squad for next month's FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 African Qualifiers action.

Only four members of the Angolan team - Yanick Moreira, Gerson Domingos, Divaldo Mbunga and Alexandre Jungo - that won all three of their Group C games in November have been added to the group that will be part of a training camp set to start on May 28 in Luanda.
Meanwhile, a number of promising stars like Egidio Ventura and Aldemiro Joao are part of a group of eight players trying to convince head coach Will Voigt and, in the process, chasing their first major appearance for the eleven-time African champions.
​
Players of Primeiro de Agosto and Petro de Luanda - two teams set to decide the 2018 Angolan Unitel Basket League title, starting on May 28 - as well as overseas-based involved in post-season commitments might join the national team at a later stage of the preparation. 

From June 29 - July 1, Angola will face the Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt and Morocco in the second-leg of Group C of the African Qualifiers in Cairo, Egypt.

The teams that finish in the top three places of the group will ensure their places in the 12-team Second Round of the African Qualifiers.
