    After a heartbreaking loss to Japan in the Qualifying Tournament dashed their hopes of an Olympic bid in 2021, Spain clinched their spot this time around with what can only be described as one of the most miraculous shots in 3x3 history.

    They defeated Canada in Debrecen, Hungary with a no-look hopeful make thanks to Gracia Alonso to book their Olympic ticket. It’s the same core that will take to the court in Paris.
