3x3 basketball (pronounced three-ex-three)[1] is a variation of basketball played three-a-side, with one backboard and in a half-court setup. According to an ESSEC Business School study commissioned by the International Olympic Committee, 3x3 is the largest urban team sport in the world.[2] This basketball game format is currently being promoted and structured by FIBA, the sport's governing body.[3] Its primary competition is an annual FIBA 3X3 World Tour,[4] comprising a series of Masters and one Final tournament, and awarding six-figure prize money in US dollars. The FIBA 3x3 World Cups for men and women are the highest tournaments for national 3x3 teams. The 3x3 format has been adopted for both the 2020 Summer Olympics and 2022 Commonwealth Games.
