The 2007 FIBA Asia Championship for Men is the qualifying tournament for FIBA Asia at the men's basketball tournament at the 2008 Summer Olympics at Beijing. The tournament was held in Tokushima, Japan from July 28 to August 5, 2007.

Participating teams qualified through the previous edition of this tournament and others through regional qualifiers. Since China is assured of an automatic berth at the 2008 Olympics as the host nation, the champions will automatically qualify while the two best teams excluding China qualifies for FIBA World Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2008.

Iran won their first championship after beating 2-time silver medallists Lebanon, 74-69. Korea upended Kazakhstan to clinch third place, and the last Asian birth in the FIBA pre-Olympic tournament, together with Lebanon.

Japan qualified automatically as hosts, while the top five finishers of FIBA Asia Championship 2005 qualified automatically.

The different FIBA Asia subzones were given berths as follows:

Zone Total berths Automatically qualified Had to qualify
East Asia 5 3: Japan, China and Korea 2: Chinese Taipei and Hong Kong
Persian Gulf 3 1: Qatar 2: Kuwait and UAE
Middle Asia 2 0 2: Kazakhstan and India
Southeast Asia 2 0 2: Philippines and Indonesia
West Asia 4 2: Lebanon and Iran 2: Jordan and Syria
Total 16 6 10

Notable teams which were unable to qualify included Flag of Uzbekistan Uzbekistan (did not take part in Middle Asia qualifying) and 2005 Southeast Asian champion Flag of Malaysia Malaysia.

The draw was held on June 6 at Tokushima. The teams were grouped first into four pots, each member of the pot is guaranteed not to face each other in the preliminary round; the top four finishers of FIBA Asia Championship 2005 are seeded in order of their finish and hence are on one pot. Japan as the host has the right to choose which group it will be under.

The draw results are shown with the teams' respective FIBA rankings prior to the draw.

  • Round robin for the preliminary round; the top two teams from each group advance to the quarterfinals.
  • Group A's and C's topnotchers are grouped with Group B's and D's runners-up (Group I) while Group A's and C's runners-up are grouped with Group B's and D's topnotchers (Group II) for a round-robin play.
