Carlos Martínez, Diego de Blas, Iván Aurrecoechea and Guim Expósó
Spain writes history also in 3×3 basketball. If and shortly afterwards he was crowned as a European queen, the male team has also knocked down the door big and this Sunday in Mongolia has won the gold medal after beating Switzerland in the final 21-17 (the women’s team fell into rooms in the competition against Canada).

👉 Spain conquers the gold medal after a great encounter against Switzerland 🥇
🏆 Final
🇪🇸🆚🇨🇭 (21-17)
📌 Ulán Bator 🇲🇳 🇪🇸– Basketball Spain (@bastioesp)
They are called Carlos Martínez, Diego de Blas, Iván Aurrecoechea and Guim Expósito and were the four chosen to represent Spain in this World Cup after work with a broader group. The background did not invite a deed. The male team collected so far a fourth European place in 2019 and another fourth place in 2016, and did not qualify for the Paris Games in this recent modality. But something exploded in Mongolia and this Sunday they beat Germany first in the semifinals 21-15 and just a couple of hours later to Switzerland in the final.
The bingo is historical and symbolizes. Men inherit the last triumphs of women with the goal put in the quote of Los Angeles 2028. The advance is firm despite the theoretical inferiority with respect to other selections: there are 17 players among the first 250 of the Ránking of the FIBA and the selection occupied until this World Cup number 11 in the male category, and the first without an official World Tour team when the great powers have players that are dedicated exclusively to this modality. In Spain it is not usually the case. Diego de Blas has recently left 5×5 to specialize in 3×3. Together with his teammates, he is already world champion.
