South Korea never got closer than four points in the final quarter as China rolled to victory.
Wang Zhizhi posted 15 points and 9 rebounds, while Liu Wei added 11 points for China. Yang Dong-geun replied with 17 points for South Korea, with Moon Tae-jong and Kim Yong-hwan adding 6 points each in the loss.
In the earlier semifinal, Jordan forward Rasheim Wright won his duel with his Filipino counterpart Marcus Douthit by scoring 24 points to the latter's 21.
Osame Daghles and Zaid Ahmed Abbas added 16 and 14 points, respectively, for Jordan.
