According to Garrick, who won gold with Australia at the 2019 FIBA 3×3 Asia Cup, the entire March Mania concept is something fans and players alike should be extremely excited about.
“It’s so fantastic for 3×3 basketball in Australia, it’s the biggest celebration of it ever,” Garrick told SEN.
“The sport has already caught a vibe around it and how exciting it is but having this here in Australia, then seeing it debut at the Olympics, it’s just going to take off.
“To be able to have some of the best players in Australia playing, current NBL and WNBL players playing, members of the 3×3 national teams both men and women playing and international players coming in…it’s going to be absolutely fantastic to watch.”
3×3 basketball will make its Olympic debut this year, with the Australian women’s team to compete in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament on March 18-22 in India.
