The fate of the winner of the 2017 SEABA Champions has been determined this Sunday night during the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualifiers draw held in Guangzhou, China.

The winner of the regional SEABA meet, a tournament that will start on Friday, May 12, will be slotted into Group B together with 48th ranked Japan, 48th ranked Chinese-Taipei, and 10th ranked Australia.
