The 2024 Summer Olympics women's 3x3 basketball tournament in Paris, France, began on 30 July and ended on 5 August 2024. All games were played at the Place de la Concorde.[1] It was the second time the 3x3 basketball women's event was held at the Olympic Games.
Germany defeated Spain in the final to win their first title. The United States took home bronze after defeating Canada.[2]
Competition format
[edit]The eight teams played a round robin. The first and second placed teams qualified for the semi-finals. The teams three to six competed in play-in games for the remaining two spots in the semi-finals. After that, a knockout system was used. Additionally, the games could be won in two ways: by being the first team to score 21 points or having the highest score through 10 minutes.[1]
Qualification
[edit]Eight teams will participate in the women's basketball tournament, with each NOC sending a roster of three players and a substitute. The qualification process consisted of four phases one based in the FIBA ranking list and three olympic qualifiers:[3][4]
- The first phase gave three quota places to the highest ranked National Olympic Committees (NOC) on the FIBA ranking list of 1 November. However, not more than two NOC's from a continent could qualify in this phase. Also a quota place was guaranteed to the host nation for only one of the 3x3 events which was given to the women's 3x3 tournament at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
- The second phase consisted of the first of three FIBA Universality-driven Olympic tournament where one quota place was awarded to the highest positioned NOC were the seven highest ranked NOCs that have not been qualified yet as well as France (for being the host nation) participated.
- The third phase was an Olympic tournament which awarded one place to the highest positioned team were the highest placed NOC's of each continental tournament and the hosts of both the tournament and the olympics, if not qualified, participated.
- The fourth phase saw the sixteen highest-ranked eligible NOCs based on the FIBA global standings, including the tournament host and host nation France, if not yet qualified, participated in another Olympic qualifier with the top three securing the remaining berths for Paris 2024.[5]
