JEDDAH: Riga were the ones left standing among the deadly dozen as they won the FIBA 3X3 World Tour Jeddah Final 2020.
The Latvians, who were seeded third, brought down top-seeded Liman of Serbia 21-20 in the final Saturday night with a pulsating buzzer-beater from Nauris Miezis, the Jeddah Final MVP.
Miezis’ basket from beyond the arc ended the hopes of the Serbians, who needed just a field goal to win the 9th edition of the FIBA 3X3 World Tour Final at the Jeddah Corniche court.
Riga thus repeated their mastery over Liman, whom they beat at the Doha Masters final last month.
