Serbia’s Ub beat Germany’s Baskets Bonn 20-19 in the final of the first FIBA 3×3 World Tour Dubai on 7 November, taking their fourth World Tour stop title of the 2026 season.

Strahinja Stojacic was named the tournament’s most valuable player as Ub worked through the knockout rounds at Festival Bay and then held off Bonn in the final.

Ub went 8-2 up early before Bonn fought back, with Fabian Giessmann and Denzel Agyeman helping the German side close the gap to 10-9.

A 5-0 run put Ub 15-9 ahead midway through the game. Bonn kept coming, and an Agyeman slam dunk cut the lead to 15-14.

The teams kept exchanging baskets, and Ub were 19-18 up with under two minutes left. Nerandzic then made it 20-19 with less than a minute to play, and Ub held on for the title.

Stojacic’s MVP award in Dubai was his second at a World Tour stop this season. He led the field with 28 highlights and 11 key assists, and his 34 points and player value of 55.4 were both second-best at the tournament.

He received the award from H.E Saeed Hareb, secretary general of the Dubai Sports Council. H.E Abdulatif Al Fardan, president of the UAE Basketball Association, joined the prize ceremony for Ub’s title.

Cibona Ph.Classic of Croatia finished third and Amsterdam RABOBANK of the Netherlands fourth. Among the Asian teams, hosts Dubai placed eighth, China’s DeQing ninth, Qatar’s Doha 12th and Taipei WanBao 13th.

In the side events, Adris De Leon of Toronto won the Shootout Contest with 12 points. Poland’s Piotr “Grabo” Grabowski took the Slam Dunk Contest, his third dunk contest title at a World Tour stop in 2026.

It was the first time Dubai had hosted a World Tour stop. The emirate joined the calendar under a three-year partnership that secures World Tour events in Dubai through 2028.
