It is managed by the ''Basketball Association of Singapore'' (''BAS''), formerly the Singapore Amateur Basketball Association (SABA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Basketball Association of Singapore )〕 At the Asian Basketball Championship, the country had its prime time between 1971 and 1993 when it qualified for 12 straight events. Since 2001, the team has been one of the contenders at the Southeast Asian Basketball Championship. There, the team won two bronze medals to date. In 1956, the team even qualified for the Summer Olympics where it left behind its competition from South Korea and Thailand. ==Recent Developments== On 5 June 2009, a "quiet revolution" took place in Singapore national men's basketball team. The team previously representing Singapore was replaced by young talents of the likes of Wei Jian Hong, Steven Khoo, Desmond Oh and Wei Long Wong, with the only 2 exceptions of senior players Pathman Matialakan and Michael Wong.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Red Sports.
