#2 Spain

The Spanish have a well-balanced roster boasting the likes of the Gasol brothers along with Willy, Juancho Hernangomez and Ricky Rubio. The Spanish have plenty of experience and skill on their roster and are led by virtually the same core that won the Bronze medal at the Brazil Olympics in 2016. It must also be noted that Spain is currently ranked second in the world behind USA, and can be expected to return with a medal.
