'''Rwanda men's national basketball team''' is a [[basketball]] team that represents [[Rwanda]] in international competitions. It is administered by the [[Rwandan Basketball Federation]] (FERWABA)<ref>[https://archive.fiba.com/pages/eng/fc/FIBA/fibaStru/nfLeag/nfProf.asp?nationalFederationNumber=352 FIBA National Federations – Rwanda], fiba.com. Retrieved 9 July 2013.</ref> Rwanda has yet to qualify for the FIBA Basketball World Cup, but has qualified for the AfroBasket six times.

Before 2000, Team Rwanda was virtually unknown to most basketball fans worldwide. Since the mid-2000s however, the team slowly but surely has made a name for itself. Team Rwanda has emerged as a major force in East Africa and has qualified for the [[AfroBasket]], Africa's prime basketball event, four times in a row between 2007 and 2013.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160323025525/http://www.fiba.com/pages/eng/fc/news/lateNews/p/newsid/55075/arti.html], fiba.com. Retrieved 18 March 2013.</ref>

At the [[AfroBasket 2021]] on home soil, Rwanda beat [[Angola men's national basketball team|Angola]], winner of ten AfroBasket editions between 1989 and 2013. The victory was considered an enormous achievement of the national team.<ref name="BasketEurope.com">[https://www.basketeurope.com/livenews-fr/563129/afrobasket-la-chute-de-langola-le-peps-du-rwanda/ AfroBasket : La chute de l’Angola, le peps du Rwanda] BasketEurope.com, 27 August 2021.
