There are USA U18 and unlimited age competitions taking place this weekend. Ordinarily I would just ignore it, but an interesting development this year is that USA Basketball invited the Pac 12 teams to send teams to increase the number of adult teams and a bunch will be participating. Heck, even Wazzu managed to find four Americans on their roster to send. |

Pac-12 sends 6 teams to USA Basketball 3-on-3 tournament
..."There is no question that 3-on-3 is becoming more of a prominent thing on the international stage," Cal coach Lindsay Gottlieb said. "It will be an Olympic sport. USA Basketball has done a tremendous effort to grow the game and grow interest in 3-on-3."
...The ultimate goal is to have 3-on-3 added to the 2020 Olympic Games. The IOC vote for that to happen is set for July.,,

wonder what happened to Ionescu? She was planning to be part of the Duck contingent. Hopefully nothing serious.

USC and Colorado were 2-1 in their group with Wazzu at 1-2. In the other group, Washington, Oregon, and Cal were all 3-1 with some Iowa State players on the only winless team. |

In the U18 Division, the heavy favorites (Bailey, DeCosta, Littleton, and Williams) beat the locals (Belibi, Van Gytenbeck ('20), Van Sickle ('21), and Watts ('19). |

"As part of a pilot program to help increase the number of women competing in 3x3, USA Basketball invited teams from the Pacific-12 Conference, and the 2017 USA Basketball 3x3 National Tournament for Women nine-team field has been rounded out by teams from University of California and University of Washington. Also, expected to compete are previously announced teams from University of Colorado, University of Oregon, University of Southern California and Washington State University
Representing the Golden Bears are 2014 USA U17 and 2015 USA U18 gold medalist Kristine Anigwe (Phoenix, Ariz.), who also claimed a silver medal playing for the 2015 USA 3x3 U18 World Championship Team, as well as Mi’Cole Cayton (Stockton, Calif.), Mikayla Cowling (Benicia, Calif.) and Asha Thomas (Oakland, Calif.). Representing the Huskies are Mai-Loni Henson (San Diego, Calif.), Amber Melgoza (Santa Barbara, Calif.), 2016 USA 3x3 World Championship Team bronze medalist Natalie Romeo (Martinez, Calif.) and Deja Strother (Kenmore, Wash.).

I don't think the US Women are competing in the 2017 3x3 World Championships, but I could be wrong.
