Seven teams from regional events across the country, including Team Saskatoon who received a wildcard berth, are competing for the title of 3x3 Canada Quest Finals Champion.

The top three teams in the tournament will earn berths in to the FIBA 3x3 World Tour 2018 Saskatoon Masters. Team Saskatoon previously qualified for the event based on their world ranking from last season.

The FIBA 3x3 World Tour 2018 Saskatoon Masters, once again hosted in conjunction with Taste of Saskatchewan on July 21 - 22, 2018, will kick off the World Tour season and be comprised of 12 teams of four players from around the world participating in a two-day tournament.

In addition to the main event, a dunk contest and a shoot-out contest will take place in between games. Live music, cheerleaders, dance teams and other entertainment will be held throughout the weekend. An amateur 3x3 tournament is also being planned to take place on satellite courts alongside the FIBA 3x3 World Tour Masters.

Last year, Team Montreal was crowned the winner of the 3x3 Canada Quest Final defeating Team Winnipeg 18-14 in the final.
