Wisconsin women's basketball forward to participate in 3x3 action during WNBA All-Star weekend

Wisconsin women’s basketball forward Serah Williams will take on the 2024 USA Basketball 3×3 Women’s National Team in an exhibition on Friday at WNBA All-Star weekend.

The contest marks the debut of 3×3 basketball at a WNBA All-Star weekend. The 2024 National Team of Rhyne Howard, Cierra Burdick, Dearica Hamby and Hailey Van Lith are set to tip off against the six-woman 2024 USA 3×3 Nations League roster.

Announced on July 5, that roster includes Williams (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Christina Dalce (University of Maryland), Morgan Maly (Creighton University), Cotie McMahon (Ohio State University), Lucy Olsen (University of Iowa) and Mikaylah Williams (LSU).

Following this weekend’s event, Williams and Co. will travel to Mexico City to play in the 2024 USA 3×3 Women’s Nations League Americas Conference July 22-28 in Mexico City.

There, the Americans will look to qualify USA Basketball for the FIBA 3×3 U23 World Cup 2024 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Unlike five-on-five, 3×3 is staged on a half-court with a 10-minute game clock and 12-second shot clock. The first squad to reach 21 points via 1-point and 2-point field goals is considered the winner.

Play is also continuous, as teams are required to clear the ball behind the 2-point line to establish possession.

Coverage will begin at 9:00 p.m. ET on Friday on ESPN.
