Last weekend, the USA Basketball women’s 3×3 team won the Gold Medal in the 2025 FIBA 3×3 Women’s AmeriCup played in Mexico. The Americans went 5-0 en route to their gold medal.
The Americans’ pool play games were on Nov. 28 where the Americans made easy work out of Brazil and Jamaica. On Nov. 30, the Americans played their best games yet by beating Argentina 22-4 in the quarterfinals and then
the Dominican Republic 21-5 in the semifinals. Their one tough game was in the championship match against Canada which was decided 21-19.
Austin averaged 5.8 points per game (keep in mind that each shot inside the three-point line is worth ONE point), tied with Naz Hillmon.
The next FIBA 3X3 World Cup will be from June 1-7, 2026 in Warsaw Poland. The Americans did not medal in last year’s World Cup, losing to Mongolia in the quarterfinals with a younger squad. The Netherlands won the Gold Medal and will look to defend it in 2026.
