Jumpshot Singapore takes home the crown at the Yunnan 3x3 Super League after remaining unbeaten throughout the entire tournament
SINGAPORE, 6 NOV 2024 – The Kunming Grand Final of the 2024 Yunnan 3x3 Super League, organised in collaboration with Target Asia 3X3 Asia League, concluded with Jumpshot Singapore securing the championship title, bringing home a proud and historic victory for Singapore in this premier TG3 Asia 3x3 basketball league.
Jumpshot Singapore’s victory in Kunming capped off a spectacular season that spanned nearly four months, traversed five cities, and featured over 600 players representing 21 countries and regions, with a total of 27 teams. This edition of the league set new records and ignited excitement for 3x3 basketball throughout Asia.
Despite a challenging game against Korea's Black Label in the first round, Jumpshot Singapore remained undefeated in the qualifying rounds and ultimately prevailed to clinch the title, outmatching familiar competitors from Asia’s top professional 3x3 teams. Teams from China, Hong Kong, Macau, Mongolia, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, and Laos all brought strong rosters, including Olympic silver medalists and a host of national team players.
Jumpshot Singapore’s championship squad featured a talented mix of national team representatives from across the globe: Dr. Attila Demeter (Hungary), Filip Kramer (Austria), Terence Hilary Tumalip (Philippines), and Jackson Mah Jun Hao (Singapore). Kramer, the towering 2.01m big man, was honoured as Finals MVP - a title he accepted with great pride. "This isn't my first MVP, but it's a special one," Kramer remarked.
A formidable force in Singapore's 3x3 circuit, Jumpshot Singapore embraced the opportunity to compete at the continental level and secured their third title this year in Yunnan, to add to the two championships they clinched within the local leagues. Team owner Esther Quek dedicated to supporting rising talent, was proud to witness her team’s strong showing in the Asia League and noted the invaluable experience this tournament provided.
Target Asia 3X3, a new league launched this year by Taiwan’s Zhang Zhi-Wei, was established to elevate the Asian 3x3 scene by providing a platform beyond FIBA’s events. Zhang highlighted the need for a competitive stage within the region where athletes can gain experience, strengthen their skills, and improve their international standing.
These 3x3 tournaments are unique in combining high-energy games with popular outdoor and indoor locations like shopping malls and landmark venues, promoting tourism and city branding while celebrating basketball.
The Target Asia 3X3 2025 season will commence on February 15-16 at the Jumpshot 3x3 Season 2 stop in Marina Square, Singapore. Following this year’s success, many cities are eager to host future events, with stops planned in Yunnan, Taiwan, Singapore, Macau, Hong Kong, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand.
