2701666, Is Canada at risk of not qualifying for an Olympic basketball berth?

I confess I don't exactly know how it works, but I know they haven't played in the Olympics since, what, 2000? Something like that?

Murray and Barrett are obviously hurt, but I'm pretty surprised guys like SGA, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Dillon Brooks, Brandon Clarke... didn't Chris Boucher leave too? They should be in position to easily be the deepest non-America team, but now they're reliant on guys like Khem Birch and Kevin Pangos. If they're attempting to qualify for the Olympics, you'd think more guys would compete, especially in a year where the American team will be relatively weak.
