History

Now known as the AmeriCup, this tournament debuted in 1980 and was originally known as the FIBA Americas Championship and the Tournament of the Americas. Six countries account for the first 18 championships, with the United States leading the way with seven, followed by Brazil (four), Puerto Rico (three), Argentina (two), Mexico (one) and Venezuela (one).

The United States enters as the defending champion, capturing the 2017 AmeriCup championship with a 5-0 record, including road wins against host countries Uruguay and Argentina, with the latter coming in the gold medal game. The United States enters the 2022 AmeriCup as the favorite as they look to be the first team to repeat as champions this century.
