Ethiopia men's national basketball team


The Ethiopia national basketball team represents Ethiopia in international competitions. It is governed by the Ethiopian Basketball Federation.
Ethiopia joined FIBA in 1949 and holds the distinction of having the longest basketball tradition in Sub-Saharan Africa. A founding member of the FIBA [Africa Championship], the team once belonged to Africa's top five basketball teams. Since the mid-1960s, however, the team lost its international significance. Today, it aims to return to its former glory.
