Turkey

Hosting the tournament, Türkiye Women has had a balanced tournament so far with a 2-2 record. This is a must win match for them as they look to advance to the final draw of the FIBA Women's World Cup. All of the games that Turkey have played have been closely contested matches where they lost a couple of them by close margins. 

 Turkey's offense relies on efficiency inside the arc, where they shoot 50% from 2-point range and average 31.5 points in the paint. Defensively, they are a formidable presence at the rim, averaging 4.3 blocks per game to deter opponents. 

While their ball movement is more conservative at 14 assists per game, they take care of the basketball and limit turnovers. Kennedy Burke has been the standout leader, driving the team's efficiency and helping them maintain a #16 world ranking through physical, interior-focused play.
