SANTA CLARA, Calif.- Former Bronco men's basketball star Henry Caruso was one of four players selected to represent Team USA at the 3x3 Champions Cup March 14-16 in Bangkok, Thailand as announced today by USA Basketball.
 
Caruso made his Team USA Debut back at the 2024 FIBA 3x3 AmeriCup in December, leading his team to a perfect 5-0 record en route to their third consecutive championship at the event. He was named tournament MVP, averaging 5.2 points per game, and had the highest player value percentage of all players in the tournament at 44.6 percent.
 
Caruso was a part of Herb Sendek's 2017-2018 squad, averaging 12.2 points and 7.0 rebounds per game in his lone season with the Broncos after transferring from Princeton. He has also been featured as a color commentator on Anthony Passarelli's broadcasts of Bronco basketball the past three seasons on ESPN+ and Sidearm Streaming.
 
The U.S. men begin Pool B play on March 14 against host nation Thailand (6:25 a.m. ET). On March 15, the Americans take on France (6:15 a.m. ET) and Australia (8:25 a.m. ET) to complete group play. The top two teams from the two pools advance straight to the semifinals on March 16.
 
Different than 5-on-5, 3x3 is played on a half-court with a 10-minute game clock and 12-second shot clock. Play is continuous, as teams "clear" the ball behind the 2-point line following a made basket, defensive rebound or steal. The first team to score 21 points via 1-point field goals or 2-pointers behind the arc is victorious; or if time expires then the team leading wins.
 
The 2025 FIBA 3x3 Champions Cup will be streamed live on Youtube.
