The El Salvador national basketball team is the official national representative of El Salvador in international men's basketball. It is governed by the Federación Salvadoreña de Baloncesto (FESABAL).
It plays in the FIBA Americas division, and more specifically, within the Central American region.
Most of its players come from the Liga Mayor de Baloncesto.
On April 20, 2021, after five days of play, El Salvador advanced to the second round of 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualification. The week of games were played at the Gimnasio Nacional José Adolfo Pineda in the city of San Salvador.
The hosts took a 68–66 victory over Jamaica, a game in which a loss would have meant elimination. A three-pointer by José Araujo, with 49 seconds remaining sealed the win for El Salvador.
Center Ronnie Aguilar was crucial in defense, as he blocked Kevin Foster at the end of the game and avoided the tie on the scoreboard. Jamaica came close to 67–66. Aguilar was sent to the free throw line and only hit the second shot with two seconds left on the clock. Jamaica was left without any timeouts and ran out of time to take a shot.
The celebration was immediate between players and fans. Roberto Martínez was the offensive leader from El Salvador with 19 points. Aguilar and Araujo added 11 each. Jamaica was led by Omari Johnson with 18 points and Marcel Robinson with 12 points.
