MANAMA (Bahrain) - It took right until the thrilling last stop of the regular season, but the full list of teams are now known for the showpiece FIBA 3x3 World Tour Manama Final on November 21-22. Here are the 14 teams flying to Manama, Bahrain's glitzy capital that is playing host of the World Tour Final for the first time. Teams qualified directly to the pool stage (1-10 on the World Tour standings ) Ub (985 pts, 6 titles)
Once again, the spectacular Serbs remain the standard after finishing on top of the regular season standings for the fourth straight year. They had an absolute purple patch, winning six titles from seven WT stops, but have hit the skids late in the season in a concern ahead of Manama.
Amsterdam Rabobank (790 pts, 1 title)
Better late than never. The Dutchmen finally broke their curse in the regular season finale with victory in Bucharest. It was relief for them after a frustrating season started with near misses before a tough stretch ensued. Amsterdam are now back in business as they eye defending their World Tour crown.
Miami (718 pts, 2 titles)
The Americans were again the No.1 team from hoops mad USA. They made the most finals after Ub with five although lifted the trophy just twice. Miami have been a consistent force all season with their scary firepower led by superstar Henry Caruso as they eye a first World Tour Final title.
Chongming (545 pts)
It is testament to Chongming's consistency that they went through titleless but still managed to finish fourth on the rankings. It was a big leap for the Chinese team who did not make a final but did reach the semis in five of their first six stops. Their challenge in Manama will be to prove that they can go all the way.
Liman (530 pts, 1 title)
The legendary Serbs have just submitted a 10th straight season of being a legit contender. They won another title to add to their glistening collection of trophies although it could have been more with Liman losing three times in the final.
Raudondvaris Hoptrans (473 pts, 1 title)
The lethal Lithuanians remain one of the powers and were winners on this season's WT after emerging victorious in Chengdu. It was a bit up and down from there, but the Lithuanians will feel buoyed after Evaldas Dziaugys proved that he was the biggest daredevil on the half-court.
Riffa (446 pts)
For much of the season, it appeared Riffa's status as a 3x3 power was fading after each disappointing exit. But with inspirational leader Dennis Donkor providing a rallying cry, Riffa turned it around and they finished off with a bang after reaching the semis in four of their last five stops.
Toulouse (439 pts, 1 title)
The Frenchmen came into the season as one of the hottest teams and lived up to the hype with victory in Amsterdam. But things nosedived after Toulouse was unable to get past the quarters for the rest of the season as they limp into Manama.
Hangzhou (356 pts)
Like Chongming, this Chinese team became a force in 2025 even though they could not win a title. Hangzhou finished runner-up twice and became firm fan favorites after they unleashed high-flyer Aleksander Lazic, one of the GOAT in-game dunkers to rattle the one-hoop game.
Vienna (355 pts, 1 WT title)
The Austrians have cemented themselves as a powerhouse in recent seasons, but were not sighted as much in 2025. They only played in 7 stops, but did make the most of their opportunities with victory in Debrecen. Skyliners (1 Challenger & 1 WT title)
Skyliners made history when they became the first German team to win a WT title after a stunning triumph in Abu Dhabi. This was hardly a surprise after they had previously made a final but the breakthrough proves they are absolutely the real deal.
Qualifying Draw
Next 3 teams with the highest number of wins in Pro Events
Partizan (2 Challenger titles)
It's been an up-and-down season for these dangerous Serbs, who were not able to make a semi on the WT. But we all know their credentials because Partizan did win two Challenger titles and boast muscular Stefan Milivojevic, 3x3's Gladiator.
Lugano (1 WT title, 2 Challenger titles)
New kids on the block Lugano made history after they became the first Swiss team to win a WT title. They have made the transition to the big stage seem easy as Lugano show no fear, especially walking bucket Adris De Leon.
Seef (Host)
The host will enter the QD as underdog, but support from their passionate fans might just lift them into the main draw.
