Once again it’s on! That’s right, the wildly popular BIG3 league is coming back like Haley’s Comet, this time with an even more star-studded roster. Just like their inaugural 2017 season, the Big 3’s rosters of retired NBA players deliver an entertaining, competitive and gritty brand of basketball that is worth the price of admission.
Newly added players like Nate Robinson, Baron Davis, Metta World Peace, Amar’e Stoudemire and Big Baby Davis are joining a league that was dominated by the Kenyon Martin-led Trilogy, featuring Al Harrington, Rashad McCants, James White and Dion Glover, and coached by Rick Mahorn.
