Milwaukee Bucks guard Michael Carter-Williams will be coming to the country for the 3-day event, which takes place at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall on August 19-21 and has a new presenting partner in Panasonic.
“I’m excited to visit the Philippines and experience Filipino fans’ passion for basketball during the NBA 3X,” said Carter-Williams. “Being a part of this event is a great opportunity to see the growth of the game internationally, and I look forward to working with these talented athletes.”
“We are proud to stage the sixth edition of NBA 3X in the Philippines, which continues to provide fans with a platform to interact with some of the league’s marquee talents,” said NBA Philippines Managing Director Carlo Singson. “In collaboration with our new presenting partner Panasonic, NBA 3X will once again bring out the players’ competitive spirit and showcase the NBA experience to thousands of Filipino fans through a weekend of fun and entertainment.”
This is the sixth straight year that NBA Philippines has staged this 3-on-3 tournament, which features 200 men's and women's teams all over the country, battling in six different divisions. Registration is already ongoing until all slots are filled.
There are four boys' divisions available for entry, Under-13, Under-16, Under-18, and Open. For the girls, they can join in either the Under-16 and the Open divisions. Fees to join are PhP 1000 for the age group divisions and PhP 1600 for the Open divisions.
There will also be a by-invite-only Celebrity Division where fans can see their favorite local personalities strut their stuff on the 3x3 courts.
Aside from the basketball competition, there will also be performances from local artists and DJs, with authentic NBA entertainment and activities that fans can experience for free throughout the weekend.
