Meanwhile, FIBA has also agreed a sponsorship deal with sports seating firm Avant Sports for 3×3 competitions.

Avant Sports will become the official seating supplier for FIBA 3×3 events as part of the deal.

The company has had similar deals with the Olympic Games, FIFA World Cup, Formula 1, and the Asian Games, supplying products such as stadium chairs, telescopic seating systems, and metal structural bleachers.

Last month, FIBA also extended its relationship with Enlio, the provider of basketball court surfaces, until 2034.

The Chinese brand will continue as an official surface supplier to FIBA for the 3×3 World Tour and the 3×3 World Cup for the next decade.

Other FIBA commercial partners include Ganten, Molten, NIKE, TCL, and Tissot.
