If there are damp objects like carpets, make sure to remove it. Then, set up several fans in the basement, don't forget to open the doors and windows so the air can circulate around and eventually dry it out.

You can keep the doors or windoes open in the area where the basement is wet. By allowing the air circulation the basement can be dried out. When the temperature is very hot it is very easy for drying but when there is dampness we can use the fan for drying.
