    The leading players at the OQT 2024 Latvia gained recognition for their efforts

    RIGA (Latvia) - The All-Star Five at the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2024 was headlined by TISSOT MVP Bruno Caboclo who proved to be the main man in taking Brazil to Paris 2024.

    The center was the inspiration behind Brazil's progression to Paris 2024 from the Latvian capital with a TISSOT MVP performance in the competition.

    He breathed fire on day one and generally maintained that level with a double-double in the Semi-Finals against Philippines and then dropping 21 points in the Final against Latvia.

    Getting the TCL Player of the Game thumbs up in the Final to give Brazil an Olympic spot is the perfect self-explanation for Meindl to be inserted in the All-Star Five.

    Taking out from the equation the 7-point performance he had in the Semi-Finals against the Philippines, he has always scored in double-digits. Putting the icing on the cake with a clutch three-point night over Latvia, meaning he can enjoy a trip to Paris now.

    Rihards Lomazs - Latvia

    He was one of the main weapons in bringing Latvia to the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023, but he missed it due to a severe knee injury. This time, playing in front of his beloved ones in Riga, he gave it all in trying to make Latvia’s Olympic dream come true.

    Rihards Lomazs was the last to surrender for his country at the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2024 after some impressive contributions.

    Justin Brownlee - Philippines

    The forward was absolutely epic in the competition and so much so that he was heralded at one point as the "Michael Jordan of the Philippines" by teammate Kai Sotto.

    Brownlee was such a beast in every way on the floor and was the inspiring factor for the Gilas Pilipinas as they rode to the Semi-Finals after stunning Latvia in the Group Phase off the back of Brownlee's brilliance.

    Jeremiah Hill- Cameroon

    Hill was the fuel that carried the Lions into the Semi-Finals and his leadership and passion for wearing the Cameroon jersey evident throughout.

    While he couldn't replicate his red-hot form against Latvia as the underdogs bowed out at the Semi-Final stage, it was still a deserved place for the guard for his contributions earlier in the competition.
