| 2023 FIBA U16 Asian Championship | |
The 2023 FIBA U16 Asian Championship was the seventh edition of the FIBA Under-16 Asian Championship in the International Basketball Federation's FIBA Asia zone. The tournament was held at the Al-Gharafa Indoor Hall and the Al-Rayyan Indoor Hall in Doha, Qatar, from September 17 to September 24, 2023.[1][2] It served as a qualifier for the 2024 FIBA Under-17 Basketball World Cup in Turkey, where the top four teams qualified.[3]
Australia successfully defended their U16 title against first-time semifinalists New Zealand in the thrilling final, 79–76, while China clinched the bronze medal after defeating the Philippines in the battle for third place, 87–59.[4]

Aside from the host nation and the defending champions, each of FIBA Asia's six subzones also gets one berth each, except for the Persian Gulf, East Asia and West Asian subzones, which were allocated two berths each. Rounding out the 16-team tournament are the four berths that would be added to each subzone, depending on its teams' performance in the previous championship.
