The 2025 Arab Basketball Championship was the 26th edition of the Arab Basketball Championship for men's national basketball teams of the Arab World, organized by the Arab Basketball Confederation. The championship was hosted by Bahrain for the first time, and it was held from 25 July to 2 August 2025.
Algeria went undefeated at the tournament to win their second title by defeating host Bahrain 70–69 in the 6th matchday.
Host selection Initially, on 1 February 2025, Tunisia was announced as the host of the upcoming 2025 Arab Championship, with all matches scheduled to take place in Nabeul. However, by mid-July, the Arab Basketball Confederation confirmed that Bahrain would host the 26th edition of the Championship, following Tunisia's withdrawal from organizing the event.
Participating teams Seven of the 22 teams affiliated with the Arab Confederation participated in this edition. Owing to the scheduling of the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup immediately following the tournament, the Asian member associations that had qualified for the continental event chose not to take part, with the exception of Qatar, which fielded a reserve team.
