IBL 3X3 Competition Back Scrolling, Player: Now More Competitive

JAKARTA - The Gojek 3X3 IBL Basketball Competition is back on. The first series of this tournament took place September 3-4 at Discovery Mall, Kuta, Bali.

This tournament involved 15 teams, such as Pelita Jaya Bakrie, Dewa United, Prawira Bandung, RANS PIK Basketball and several other teams.

Guard Evos Thunder Bogor, Cassiopeia Manuputty admits, this 3X3 basketball match is more difficult to live than 5X5.

"With only 3 players on the field, anyone can be defeated. There is no term tough team," said the player who is familiarly called Cio.

The same thing was revealed by West Bandits Combiphar Solo player, Gabriel Batistuta Risky. According to him, the 3X3 game is more competitive.

'Young players also have the opportunity to win. This event can also add to their experience because they can compete more when off-season," he said.

This tournament itself was absent for two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many hope that this tournament will continue to exist because it is considered to provide new colors in the Indonesian basketball competition.

"I certainly hope that IBL 3X3 will continue to exist, because this gives a new color at the time of the competition break," said NSH Mountain Gold Timika star Andre Rorimpandey.
