Could have found 4 better players at LSU rec center. These guys can't shoot.

What was the selection process?
I know they can’t really use college or nba players. But how did they do selection?

Don't know. Probably bought way in.

They have to compete in FIBA 3x3 and gain ranking points, that's why it's seemingly the bottom of the barrel players for the men.
Why would anyone choose 3x3 over the G League? Or why would they play 3x3 in the offseason basically for free?

isn’t there a 3x3 tournament that gets televised
Have to assume the winners of that could go be a cohesive team in this event.

I just want to know the rationale for adding 3x3 basketball to the Olympics.

other countries like basketball but can’t compete with the US.

You have to qualify through FIBA and play in enough qualifiers to play.
NBA players aren't going to suddenly move to FIBA and the Euros have professional 3x3 teams. I think we could have one hell of a squad with some 5 star recruits though

The Big 3 league is full of washed up 40 year olds that played in the NBA in the early 2000s. They would get smoked by the Euro sqauds.
Plus, I don't think it qualifies for FIBA points

It is funny that we have a guy playing beach volleyball that would be better than anybody on the 3 on 3 team.

We can't grab former NBA players shortly after retirement?
LBJ could be on the 2028 team.

I believe they have 3x3 qualifying that runs year round and coincides with college and nba seasons.

Let me raise a more fundamental question. Why is this even a sport?
