The Blackwater Smooth Razor is a Philippine 3x3 basketball team which competes in the PBA 3x3, organized by the Philippines' top-flight professional league, Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The team is affiliated with the PBA member franchise team Blackwater Bossing.

History

Blackwater Bossing did not field a team in the inaugural 2021 PBA 3x3 season despite being one of the twelve regular franchise teams of the main 5x5 PBA league. This is due to cost-cutting measures of Blackwater's parent company Ever Bilena which was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Blackwater announced intention to join in for the third conference in May 2022 but ultimately did not take part.[2][3] The team is set to join the PBA 3x3 in the 2022–23 season.[4]
