The Jr. NBA Philosophy is to share the game of basketball with youth across the world by teaching skills, values, and wellness in a positive and fun environment. The Jr. NBA’s holistic approach is intended to strengthen the culture of youth basketball, teach life lessons, and empower youth to live a full and healthy life. The Jr. NBA believes this philosophy leads to developing complete and well-rounded basketball players and individuals.

Why Do We Have 3v3 ?
​
In an environment where young players just want to compete in games, we believe that a competitive 3x3 league combined with regular technical trainings can provide a lot of value. Not only has 3×3 become very popular (and turned into an Olympic sport), it has also proven to be highly beneficial in developing key skills. 3×3 benefits include players touching the ball a lot more often, a very fast paced environment forcing players to think quickly, and more spacing which makes defending difficult.
