Summary/Abstract: Basketball 3x3 has consolidated its reputation as an attractive and fascinating sport at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Among the eight men's participants in Paris, three teams from the Tokyo Olympics (Japan, Russian Olympic Committee and Belgium) were missing. In their place, those of the USA, Lithuania and France (host) qualified. The game system was maintained from the previous Olympics - eight teams, playing each against each other. After qualifying in the group, in the elimination phase, the first two teams rest. The last two teams are eliminated from further participation. The quarter-finals are between the 3-6 and 4-5 teams from the classification in the first phase. The semi finals are between the first in the group and the winner of the match between 4 and 5 teams and between the second in the group and the winner of the match between 3 and 6 teams. The winners play in the final, and the losers play for the bronze medal. With the conducted research, we want to present to the audience the synthesized results of the shooting accuracy of the participating eight men's teams from the three positions - for one and two points, as well as the success rate when executing shooting free throws. The average performance per match of each team was established with the place in the final ranking in the preliminary (group) phase and the final ranking of the Olympic Games, and we made the corresponding analyses and conclusions. The number of attempts made and the number of successful shots were established, as well as the percentage of successfully realized points for each of the three zones separately and the total success rate of shooting of the men in percentage. The results between the participating teams were compared, the final ranking was analyzed according to the results obtained. We calculated the average age and average height of each participating team and made the corresponding conclusions after the final ranking.
