The 2024 Summer Olympics women's 3x3 basketball tournament in Paris, France, began on 30 July and ended on 5 August 2024. All games were played at the Place de la Concorde. [1] It was the second time the 3x3 basketball women's event was held at the Olympic Games.

Contents

Germany defeated Spain in the final to win their first title. The United States took home bronze after defeating Canada. [2]
