Three qualifying tournaments each offered a single place in Brazil with the first two finals contested today.

In Belgrade, hosts Serbia eased to a 108-77 victory over their Caribbean rivals.

Bogdan Bogdanovic and Nikola Jokic were key in an explosive start as they combined for 15 points and seven assists in just seven minutes of play.

It means the Serbs will play in the Olympics for the first time as an independent country.

In Turin, Croatia shocked hosts Italy with a 84-78 success after overtime.

The Italians won the final three quarters but lost the first 19-12 as the game finished 70-70 after regulation time.

Croatia then pulled away to book a surprise success.

Elsewhere, Canada and France booked their places in the final of the qualification tournament in Filipino capital Manila.

The Canadians proved to be too strong for New Zealand, edging them 78-72 at the Mall of Asia Arena.

France saw off Turkey 75-63 with the final to decide the Olympic spot taking place tomorrow.
