Quinn Ellis has been crowned the winner of the Foot Locker 3-Point Shootout after an impressive showing at the 2022 Hoopsfix All-Star Classic.

The Italy-based guard produced a score of 18 to beat Katie Januszewska and Anna Nevison in the final to top the third edition of the mixed gender contest and follow Rhys Sundimalt and Alex Distras as winners.

Nevison opened up the contest with a very respectable opening effort of 15 points before Olivia Forster got hot in the middle phase of her round with a perfect rack amongst a score of 13. Januszewska then fired in 15 to match Nevison, while Wroe just missed out on double figures

Ellis set the tone for the boys by taking the lead with a late corner three to move to 16 points. Pedro Ellery reached double figures before Oliver Wright came close with a score of 13, while Kanu Gudza also missed out on a place in the top three.

It was Ellis to kick off the final and the former GB junior laid down another marker with an impressive score of 18. Januszewska found an early rhythm before finishing with 14, while Nevison put up 11 points with the women’s duo both making the final for the second year in a row.

First round scores:

Anna Nevison – 15; Olivia Forster – 13; Katie Januszewska – 15; Charli Wroe – 7; Quinn Ellis – 16; Pedro Ellery – 10; Oliver Wright – 13; Kanu Gudza – 7

Final round scores:

Quinn Ellis – 18; Katie Januszewska – 14; Anna Nevison – 11

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
