DEBRECEN (FIBA 3x3 U18 European Championships) - Sara Krumpholcova (Czech Republic) won MVP honours and featured with Astou Gaye (France) and Veronika Kanyasi (Hungary) on the women's Team of the Tournament at the 2016 FIBA 3x3 U18 European Championships in Debrecen, Hungary on 9-11 September 2016.
Krumpholcova was a major reason why Czech Republic won bronze. She scored half of her team's total points, the game-winner in the quarter-finals against Belgium and was key in the come-back win against Russia in the bronze-medal game.
Gaye was a force for France in the post and led the team to a second gold medal, just three months after the FIBA 3x3 U18 World Championships.
Last but not least, Veronika Kanyasi was a leader for a Hungarian team, which did not keep their U18 European crown but made a whole country proud after a narrow loss (10-11) in the final against France.
