Lebanon defeated its toughest rival Iran and won against the hosts (Jordan) as well. By doing so, Lebanon booked a seat in the FIBA Asia Cup 2017 which will take place in Beirut. This was Coach Joe Moujaess’ first challenge and he managed to bring the best out of the team and scored some impressive stats. Lebanon was the best defensive team, the best in terms of rebounds and steals and the team with the least turnovers per game.
