DOHA, Nov 4: Kuwait 3x3 basketball team A clinched the silver medal at the Gulf Championship after a narrow defeat to Qatar B in the final, with a score of 16-18. This championship match took place in the Qatari capital, Doha. The national team B secured the third-place spot in the tournament by defeating Qatar A with a score of 21-17 in the preceding game. Kuwait maintained the lead for most of the final match, but Qatar last-minute surge proved decisive.

The match witnessed significant protests from Kuwait management against the refereeing decisions, which appeared to heavily favor the Qatari team. Both Kuwait teams, A and B, earned their spots in the tournament's semifinals by overcoming teams from the Sultanate of Oman.
Kuwait team A were represented by players Ahmed Al Balushi, Abdul Mohsen Mortada, and Ali Al Hadhoud, along with Abdulaziz Al-Hamidi. Meanwhile, team B featured Muhammad Adnan, Turki Hammoud, Omran Jawhar and Alexander Al-Ghais
