Ready for the basketball drama of the year? Serbia clinched third place at the 3×3 Basketball World Cup, but the road to bronze was a true cinematic thriller! Our guys unexpectedly lost to Switzerland in the semifinals, shocking many. But the real battle came in the bronze medal match against Germany, where our eagles showed heart and character worthy of admiration.
Germany took an early six-point lead, but Serbia never gave up. Strahinja Stojačić, Dejan Majstorović, Marko Branković, and Nemanja Barać fought like lions. In the final moments, free throws decided the winner – Majstorović was ice-cold, sinking crucial points that sealed the victory. Branković was unstoppable, hitting several important two-pointers and layups, while Barać held the defense and nailed free throws.
The drama peaked in the last seconds, with Majstorović tying the game with 22 seconds left, and Branković then putting Serbia ahead. Germany tried to come back, but the Serbian team held on and took the bronze. This is a huge success for Serbia, showing they never quit, even when things look bleak.
This victory is even sweeter because the tournament was held in Mongolia, far from home, where our guys had to battle all challenges. Serbia proved it’s a true basketball powerhouse and will keep fighting for top results.
