Since its birth in 2019, this youth independent brand event, jointly created by the Shanghai Municipal Sports Bureau and the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission, has broken the tradition of "breaking out of the cocoon" and based on the principle of "zero threshold and no borders". Shanghai teenagers create a stage to show their youthful vitality, unite team friendship and realize their basketball dreams.

At the opening ceremony, Shanghai Vice Mayor Xie Dong announced the opening of the event. Shanghai men's basketball players Li Hongquan and Liu Zhengqing respectively led the 2023 MAGIC3 Xuhui Division athletes representatives to launch a wonderful opening match.

He later became a member of Shanghai Jiushi Basketball Club. Now he has made his mark in CBA. "I hope the children can continue to fly their basketball dreams here and make like-minded friends who love basketball......"

Wu Zehao once represented Shanghai Jiaotong University to achieve good results in the top eight in the CUBA. In the Senior high school era, he participated in MAGIC3 for two consecutive years in 2019 and 2020, and led the team to win the championship in the mass group of the event.
