Gunn to participate in the international event for Team USA
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. – Recent DePaul graduate, CJ Gunn, has been named to Team USA 3x3 Nations League Team, as announced by USA Basketball Wednesday morning. Gunn and the rest of the roster will compete June 27-July 3 in Ñuñoa, Chile.
Gunn finished his collegiate career with DePaul in May after leading the Blue Demons in scoring for the second-straight season. The Indianapolis native participated in the USA Basketball 3x3 Men's Development Camp in April.
The 2026 FIBA 3x3 Nations League Americas Conference North will feature six three-game tournaments over seven days. The competition will run in a 'stops' format, with multiple stops held over the course of the weeklong event. Teams will accumulate points based on their performance in each stop. Team members can substitute as needed for each day's four-person entry.
The FIBA 3x3 Nations League will be a qualification route to the 2026 FIBA 3x3 U23 World Cup. Conference winners will qualify for the event, set for Sept. 15-19 in Wuhan, China. China men and women will receive automatic qualification along with the reigning champions (Lithuania men and Netherlands women). The rest of the teams will come from the winners of each conference and the next teams in the FIBA 3x3 Nations League 2026 final standings.
The 2026 FIBA 3x3 Nations League will stream live on YouTube.com/FIBA3x3.
3x3 is played on a half court with a 10-minute clock and a 12-second shot clock. The first team to 21 points, or the team in the lead at the end of regulation, is the winner.
