This weekend, eight teams of four women each will be vying for prize money and a berth at a FIBA (International Basketball Federation) 3x3 tour event at this weekend's 3x3 Basketball Association (3XBA) tournament in Spokane, Washington.

Among the competitors will be 2024 Olympic bronze medalist Cierra Burdick, Columbia alumna Camille Zimmerman and recent Harvard graduate Harmoni Turner, who earned gold at the 2024 FIBA 3x3 U23 World Cup. The participating players comprise over 20% of the women selected in April's WNBA Draft.
