Pacific Games 3x3 Men’s All Star 3

HONIARA (Solomon Islands) - Following the Pacific Games 3x3 Competition, the men's All Star 3contingent has been named.

Reo Aiken - Guam

The top scorer for the competition, with 55 points across the four-day event, 20 of those 2-pointers, Aiken was prolific for Team Guam as they successfully defend their gold medal from 2019.  With impressive run, and aggression towards the rim, Aiken wasn’t afraid to step off the 2-point arch to get the job done.  Participating at his first Pacific Games, the 21-year-old is poised to become an integral part of the team foundations moving forward.

Josh Fox - Fiji

On his self-proclaimed ‘revenge tour’, Josh Fox took the Pacific Games by storm earning All Star section in both 5x5 and 3x3 in his third Pacific Games.  With finesse under the rim, and determination around the rest of the court, Fox was a man on a mission, willing, and inspiring his team to the gold medal match.  Settling for silver, we have no doubt Fox, and his Fijian troops will be back to fight for gold at Tahiti in 2027.

 

Jules Cassaigne - New Caledonia

Racking up 45 points across the competition, Cassaigne was monumental in the rise of New Caledonia’s 3x3 team, breezing through pool matches without dropping a game.  Despite going down to Fiji in the semi-final, the men from New Caledonia finished on the podium with a bronze medal, defeating Papua New Guinea 21-5.  Cassaigne’s ability to score from seemingly impossible situations, provided his team with a somewhat endless supply of offensive opportunity.
