The 2026 FIBA 3x3 Champions Cup, held in Bangkok, Thailand, on March 14, is expected to feature intense competition in the women's division, with five players set to be in the spotlight.
The FIBA 3x3 website stated on Thursday that in 3x3 basketball, one player often makes the difference through a crucial two-point shot, a crucial defense, or a quick series of points that can change the momentum of the game.
One player who deserves attention is Noortje Driessen from the Dutch 3x3 basketball team.
He comes with a lot of capital after winning the MVP title of the FIBA 3x3 World Cup 2025 and the FIBA 3x3 Europe Cup 2025.
Driessen is known for his strength in deep areas and solid defensive instincts.
The second player to be highlighted is Sandra Ygueravide of Spain. She is a two-time FIBA 3x3 Europe Cup MVP in 2021 and 2024 and is known for her calm playmaking under pressure.
Meanwhile, Canada's Saicha Grant-Allen was named MVP of the previous edition after leading his team to victory in the 2025 FIBA 3x3 Champions Cup. His rebounding and defensive dominance made Canada difficult for opponents to penetrate.
