See how these final sets of knockout stage tickets can be booked by four of eight remaining teams that are still in contention.
Group I (SRB, DOM, ITA, PUR)
The Dominican Republic and Italy, together with Group B standouts Serbia and Puerto Rico, have identical 3-1 win-loss records.
It was on the first matchday of Round 2 in which Bogdan Bogdanovic's Serbian side and Karl-Anthony Towns' Dominican squad absorbed their first losses to Italy and Puerto Rico, respectively.

Although the four teams are narrowly separated by point difference and head-to-head results, all tiebreak metrics go down the drain as the two winners in the Italy-Puerto Rico and Serbia-Dominican Republic matchups will advance to the quarterfinals.
Simply put, it's win or go home in Group I on Sunday.
Group L (CAN, ESP, BRA, LAT)
Defending champion Spain and tournament favorite Canada, expected to cruise to the final eight, found themselves on the losing ends of major upsets from Latvia and Brazil on Friday.
That resulted in a four-way tie in the group with 3-1 records..

Group L's closing game between Spain and Canada guarantees an early exit for one of the tournament's powerhouse squads.
Similarly, only one of this year's giant slayers, Brazil or Latvia, will make it to the quarterfinals.
