A month after participating in the 2019 FIBA 3x3 Fountask Nanjing Challenger, Amjyot Singh was back at it in Novi Sad, Serbia for another Challenger event.
Teaming up with his 3x3 teammates - Kiran Shastri, Inderbir Singh Gill, and Bikramjit Gill - Amjyot participated in the 2019 FIBA 3x3 Novi Sad Ultra Challenger, a qualifier event for the 3x3 Mexico World Tour Masters.
Delhi 3BL were grouped in Pool D along with Princeton (USA) and Zemun (Serbia).
Game 1 was a defensive contest with Zemun where Amjyot and his squad narrowly lost 15-13.
