FIBA launches FIBA 3x3 All-Stars, the new endpoint to the 3x3 season
During the FIBA 3x3 World Tour Lausanne Masters this past weekend, FIBA
officially announced the first-ever FIBA 3x3 All-Stars to be held in
Doha, Qatar on 12 December, providing an additional exclamation mark to
end the 3x3 season in style in 2013. The agreement between FIBA and the
Qatar Basketball Federation (QBF) is for three years. FIBA Secretary
General and IOC Member Patrick Baumann shared his enthusiasm: "The
first-ever FIBA 3x3 All-Stars is a further step in the development of
3x3 and the most astute use of our unique 3x3 Individual World Ranking.
It is the ultimate proof that the discipline keeps expanding."
