3×3 Road to Abu Dhabi: Kranj wins the Prague Masters

After a tournament filled with surprises, Team Kranj, from Slovenia, came on the top of the FIBA 3×3 World Tour in Prague. They will be joined in Abu Dhabi, for the 3×3 World Tour Final by Team Kolobrzeg from Poland. 

Kranj, two times semi-finalists in the FIBA 3×3 World Tour, dominated in the final against Kolobrzeg, final score 18-11, behind the 10 poinst scored by Mensud Julevic.

The Polish team ran out of gas in the final act, after two huge upsets against number 2 seed, Team Trbovlje (Slovenia) in the quarter finals and Team Paris in the semifinals. The French team eliminated Abu Dhabi 3×3 Tour and Challenger champions Al Wahda in the quarter finals.

Next stop for the FIBA 3×3 World Tour is in Beijing, in less than a week, on August 15-16. It will be the third consecutive World Tour Master for Team Al Wahda, the representative of UAE in the circuit.
