Notes
The inaugural round of games in the BIG3 Basketball League took place at the Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, New York. It featured four 3x3 basketball games. The winner of each game was determined by the first team to reach 60-points, such that when they 60 or more points they lead by 2 points or more, half time occurs when one team reached 30 or more points. If a team reaches 60 or more points without leading by 2, the game enters "overtime" and continues until one team leads the other by 2 or more points. In this round, the inaugural game went to overtime.
The second round of games in the BIG3 Basketball League took place at the Spectrum Center, in Charlotte, North Carolina. The winner of each game was determined by the first team to reach 50-points, such that when they score 50 or more points and they lead by 2 points. Half time occurs when one team reached 25 or more points. The 50-point goal has been kept in place after the 60-point goal made the games a little too lengthy.
The third round of games in the BIG3 Basketball League took place at the BOK Center, in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The fourth round of games in the BIG3 Basketball League took place at the Wells Fargo Center, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
