DUBAI (United Arab Emirates) – Strahinja Stojacic of Ub (SRB) capped another outstanding World Tour performance by earning Most Valuable Player honors at the FIBA 3x3 World Tour Dubai 2026 on November 7, after leading the Serbian powerhouse to their fourth title of the 2026 season.
Known as "Doctor Strange," Stojacic was instrumental throughout the tournament as Ub battled through a challenging field before edging Baskets Bonn (GER) 20-19 in a thrilling Final at Festival Bay, Dubai Festival City.
The Serbian star delivered across the board, recording 28 highlights and 11 key assists, both tournament-leading figures. He also accumulated 34 points and a player value of 55.4, both ranking second-highest in the competition.
Stojacic's all-around excellence proved crucial to Ub's titular run, particularly during the knockout stages. He helped the Serbians overcome Liman (SRB) in the Quarter-Finals and Amsterdam RABOBANK (NED) in the Semi-Finals before delivering another composed performance in the title-deciding game against Baskets Bonn.
The Dubai honor marks the second time this season that Stojacic has been named MVP at a World Tour stop, adding another individual accolade to an already memorable 2026 campaign.
Stojacic received the MVP award from H.E. Saeed Hareb, Secretary General of the Dubai Sports Council. H.E. Abdulatif Al Fardan, President of the UAE Basketball Association, also joined the prize ceremony as Ub celebrated their fourth World Tour title of the season.
