Masters in Paris is set to go

Previous Cebu Masters was very thrilling and the final game of that tournament will stay for a long period in the memory of real 3×3 basketball supporters. World Tour 2022 continues next weekend with Masters in the capital of France – Paris.

The tension rises as many teams are competing for participation in the Final Masters of the season in Abu Dhabi. Let’s go through what awaits us upcoming weekend.

Twelve teams will take part in the main tournament in the French capital. We will witness a competition in four groups of three teams. One member of pool C will be determined in the qualifications on October 7. There will be a qualification draw that includes Bjelovar, Cacak, and Athens.

Group stage fixtures are scheduled to be played on October 7. We expected 12 games in pools A, B, C, and D. The two best-ranked teams in each group will qualify for the quarterfinals.

Ub, Utrecht, and Danube will participate in group A

LimanNY Harlem, and Prebold will battle for two places in the elimination stage in pool B

ViennaParis, and the winner of the qualifications will compete for the best 8 in group C

PrincetonJeddah, and Doha are involved in competition in pool D.

Quarterfinals, semifinals, and final game are set to be played on October 8, 2022.

Ub won four first challengers of World Tour 2022. Strahinja Stojacic, their giant star, is dominating throughout the whole season with his presence on the court. The Serbian team wants to return to winning ways after Debrecen’s defeat against Antwerp. Guys from Serbia will not have an easy task against compatriots Danube and inspired Utrecht.

Liman is expected to shine in group B. Stefan Kojic, leader of the Serbian team is really on fire in the recent period. Liman finally won the Masters in Utrecht and wants to continue in that manner. They will have challenges against NY Harlem led by Dominique Jones aka “Disco Domo”, and Slovenian team Prebold.

Paris had its debut performance in Utrecht and surprisingly reached the final of that tournament. French team can be again “dark horse” with excellent Frank Seguela and Paul Djoko in their squad.
