The Chinese Taipei men's national basketball team (Chinese: 中華台北國家男子籃球隊) represents Taiwan (The Republic of China) in international basketball, and is controlled by the Chinese Taipei Basketball Association. The team was known as Formosa prior to the implementation of the Nagoya Resolution in 1981.
Led by team leader, Yi Kuo-juei (Chinese: 易國瑞), Chinese Taipei's fourth-place finish at the 1959 FIBA World Championship is the second-best finish at the FIBA World Cup for an Asian team, only behind the Philippines' third-place finish at the 1954 edition.
