Third-Straight ‘3x3NL Tour’ Triumph on the Cards?

Ever since arriving in Netherlands nearly a month ago, Gurugram 3BL has been in red-hot form in the ‘3x3NL Tour 2021’ events. It has won both its previous two tournaments in Katwijk (24th July) and Heerenveen (31st July).
The victory at the 3x3 Pro Cup in Heereveen assured Gurugram 3BL a spot in the FIBA 3x3 World Tour Challenger event to be held in Utrecht on 19-20 September.
In other words, at tomorrow’s 3x3 Pro Cup in Utrecht, Gurugram 3BL will be playing for nothing more than pride and prize money, hoping to end their Netherlands sojourn on a winning note, before returning to India.
