The Australian Boomers will play their final Group Stage match against Greece on Friday night. Despite losing to Canada (93-83), dropping their record to 1-1, the Boomers remain well-positioned to advance to the next round. In contrast, Greece sits at the bottom of Group A, having suffered losses to Canada and Spain in their first two games.

If Canada defeats Spain and the Boomers win on Friday, the Australian team will rank second in the group, just behind Canada, thanks to their opening win against Spain. However, a loss to Greece would result in a three-way tie, with three teams standing at 1-2, making point differential a crucial factor in determining who advances.
