The Indonesian Basketball Association (Perbasi) initially announced a 17-player roster, including NCAA-trained forward Derrick Michael Xzavierro, to compete in the first round of the qualifying stage held in Seremban, Malaysia.

During the tournament, Indonesia secured an 80-54 victory over Singapore in the first round of the pre-qualification stage. Led by Yudha Saputera, who scored 16 points, the team took an early lead and finished at the top of Group C.
