Team Info

The South Sudan national basketball team, known as the Bright Stars, is a rising force in African basketball. Based in Juba and competing in FIBA Africa competitions, the team represents the world's youngest nation. The team was founded after the country's independence in 2011, with its colors of black, red, green, blue, and yellow reflecting the national flag. The team is managed by the South Sudan Basketball Federation. The formation of the team was a monumental moment for the new nation, symbolizing unity and a fresh start. Despite its recent establishment, South Sudan basketball has experienced a meteoric rise, largely fueled by a golden generation of talent. The peak era is arguably now, with the team qualifying for its first FIBA Basketball World Cup in 2023, a historic achievement led by NBA talents like Wenyen Gabriel and Carlik Jones. The modern core is exceptionally talented, blending NBA experience with emerging stars, making them a formidable opponent in any tournament. The fan base is incredibly enthusiastic, celebrating every milestone as a national triumph. In short, the Bright Stars have quickly become one of Africa's most exciting and talented teams, with a bright future ahead.
