Scola clashed with Tall Blacks Pero Cameron in the last 16 tie and broke two teeth but national team doctor Diego Grippo confirmed he will be available to face Turkey.

"He will not have any problems to continue in the tournament," Grippo told the Argentinian Basketball Confederation's official website.

"However he will have to undergo some other repairs when the championship finishes."

Scola, who was taken to hospital in Saitama after the game, added: "I had already experienced this, they are common in the game. I'll have to spend a long time with the dentist and play the rest of the tournament with protection."
