MIES (Switzerland) - The clock is ticking until the brand new FIBA 3x3 World Tour season gets underway and the field will look just a little bit different with new teams being unveiled as several superstars find new homes.
Here's the info you need to know before the World Tour starts season 14.
Paris becomes Toulouse
Paris (FRA) have become a household name on the World Tour after a memorable past couple of seasons and have been superbly led by superstar Franck Seguela, who inspired France to the silver medal at the Paris Olympics.
But say au revoir to Paris, and welcome Toulouse to the World Tour. These fabulous Frenchmen might have rebranded but they are set to remain just as formidable in different colors.
Wuxi's Borovicanin joins Partizan
Partizan (SRB) are a solid team on the World Tour, but last season could not replicate their achievements in 2023 and win a title on the World Tour. They needed a spark and Vuk Borovicanin might just provide it having crossed over from Wuxi (CHN).
The 23-year-old has all the characteristics to be a 3x3 star with good shooting touch complementing his tall frame. If he catches fire then Partizan might just win some silverware in 2025.
Dubas jumps on board with Lausanne
Much like Partizan, Lausanne (SUI) were unable to achieve the ultimate glory on the World Tour 2024. But they came awfully close after finishing runner-up in consecutive stops early in the season before falling away.
The addition of Fribourg big fella Jonathan Dubas is hoped to be the missing piece for these Swiss Masters to finally break their curse on the big stage.
Ariunbold & Onolbaatar join Ulaanbaatar MMC Energy
The World Tour field is going to be even stronger with fan favorite Ulaanbaatar MMC Energy (MGL) another team to have added considerable firepower. They will be boosted by walking bucket Anand Ariunbold aka 'The Archer' and you just know he'll hit the target.
And he'll be joined by his Sansar MMC Energy (MGL) teammate Enkhbaatar Onolbaatar as Ulaanbaatar just added to their depth of talent.
St Pauli rebrands as Baskets Bonn Telekom
The German young guns made the leap in 2024 as Fabian Giessmann and Denzel Agyeman became emerging superstars. These excitement machines are one of the hottest teams on the planet with much expected of them in 2025.
The artists formerly known as St. Pauli are now called Baskets Bonn Telekom and they are ready to take over the planet. Remember the name!
New team from Bordeaux
French teams add so much flair on the half-court and there is another team set to complement Toulouse. We can't wait to welcome Bordeaux to the fold, so get ready to learn more about this new 3x3 French team on the block.
Milakovic to spark revived Novi Sad
A new team from Novi Sad is back on the World Tour. The name brings back memories of the OGs where Dusan Bulut and Dejan Majstorovic were at the center of the first legendary World Tour team.
Former Ub and Liman star Marko Milakovic is ready to lead the new Novi Sad and you know their legendary name will inspire them to great things on the half-court. San Juan becomes Carolina Say "Adios" to San Juan, but they won't go too far. Ralat and company will play the 3x3 World Tour 2025 as Carolina (PUR)
