Great Britainâ€
s men will play their November EuroBasket qualifiers against France and Montenegro in Pau.
Although the southern French city has been chosen as a centre venue for the window, Jeep Leagueâ€
s Pau-Orthez this week had its whole team test positive for coronavirus.
The bubble venue for GB womenâ€
s Euro qualification contest against Poland in mid-November will be Istanbul, FIBA also announced.
The decision to play both windows in bubbles, instead of home and away games, for menâ€
s competitions was confirmed by the FIBA Executive Committee in September after taking into consideration the health and safety of players, coaches and officials, and following a recommendation from the Medical and Competitions Commissions.
In a statement FIBA said: “The most important criteria in choosing the hosts was health, travel guarantees and compliance with FIBA health protocols, including testing and controlled entry into a secure environment.â€
