Mexico won the Pan American Games silver medal in Winnipeg 1967 led by Captain Carlos Quintanar with players like Arturo Guerrero and Manuel Raga.

At the FIBA Americas Championship 2009 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Mexico finished 7th, ahead of Panama, Venezuela and the .[2]

On individual performances, Gustavo Ayon finished among the tournament's top performers in steals (3rd), blocks (3rd) and minutes per game (9th).[3]

Both Eduardo Nájera and Earl Watson expressed their interest in representing Mexico internationally.[4][5] However, neither received permission by their NBA teams to participate at the FIBA Americas Championship 2009 in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[6]

Mexico Beats Team USA[]

On October 29, 2011, Mexico defeated Team USA 71-55. This 16 point victory took place during the 2011 Pan Am Games.[7]

"La Edad de Oro" (2013-Present)[]

Mexico took part in the FIBA Americas Championship 2013 to replace Panama, who were disqualified. To the surprise of many they beat hosts Venezuela in their opening game, and advanced to the second round with wins over Paraguay and the Dominican Republic. They later finished top of the eight-team second round group and a semi-final win over heavy favourites Argentina saw them through to the final.

On 11 September 2013, they beat Puerto Rico 91-83 in the gold medal game to win the FIBA Americas Championship.[8] Inside player Gustavo Ayon was voted as the tournament's Most Valuable Player.

2014 Basketball World Cup[]

The surprising gold medal at the 2013 FIBA Americas Championship secured Mexico a spot at the 2014 FIBA World Cup in Spain. This marked the first qualification to the Basketball World Cup in 40 years.[9]

At the 2014 FIBA World Cup, the Mexicans won two of their five preliminary round games against Korea and Angola which earned them a playoff spot for the first time in their history. They would, however, come unstuck against eventual champions USA.

Especially noteworthy was Mexico’s 3 point field goal percentage, which was one of the highest among all the teams at the event.[10]

2015 FIBA Americas Championship[]

Due to Mexico's strong performances of late, the country gained the right to host the 2015 FIBA Americas Championship.
