Final

United States v Turkey

The question all tournament has been who could keep the USA from winning a fourth straight FIBA U17 World Championship crown. The final challenger in Zaragoza will be debutants Turkey, who go into the title bout with little to no pressure. The USA have won all 29 of their games thus far in the competition's history and head coach Don Showalter's men are heavy favourites to make it 30-0 and four titles in a row. The Americans have won all of their games in Zaragoza by an average margin of 45.3 points and scored a tournament-best 107.8 points per game. One injury question mark going into the game is Turkey center Ragip Berke Atar, who went down midway through Turkey's Semi-Final win over Spain.

3rd Place Game

Lithuania v Spain

Lithuania (2010) or Spain (2012 and 2014) have been the 4th place finishers in the first three U17 Worlds. One of them will finally break through for a spot on the podium while the other will have to wait another two years for another chance to make onto one of the steps.

Classification 5-6

France v Canada

Two teams who had higher expectations coming into the tournament will battle for 5th place. The Canadians got surprised in the Quarter-Finals by Turkey while France were bounced in overtime at the same stage by Lithuania.

Classification 7-8

Korea v Australia

Korea are already guaranteed their best finish after 12th and 11th placed finishes in 2010 and 2012, respectively. After reaching the last two Finals and coming in 6th in 2010, the Australians will suffer their poorest showing at the event.
