Captain Yassin Ismail, Director of the Qatari 3x3 Basketball Teams, praised this achievement, saying, 'Abdullah is not an ordinary talent; he is a potential professional player by all standards.

These are the qualities that distinguish a player of the future.' Abdullah Yassin Ismail Musa said, 'I can't describe how I feel. To be the only Arab and then emerge a champion is a great honor and a huge responsibility. My thanks to everyone who supported me, from the Qatar Football Association, my family, and my coaches in the Qatari national team and Al Rayyan Club. This experience has taught me a lot. Now I return to Doha more determined and more eager to reach further than I ever dreamed.' He added, 'It was an unforgettable experience. The training was intense, and the competition was fierce, but I believed in myself and in representing my country and the entire Arab world.' He explained: 'I am very happy to have won first place in the Basketball Without Borders Asia camp, and also to have won first place in the three-point shooting competition, especially in the presence of coaches and players from the NBA. The competition was not easy, but focus and self-confidence were my weapons.
