Big3 hoops league draws large crowd to Barclays Center opener
Posted Jun 25, 2017
Ice Cube insisted there was a supply of relatively spry former NBA players looking for some action, and a demand to see them from their old fans. On Sunday, the rapper/actor’s business sense proved sharp again. His “BIG3” halfcourt, three-on-three league debuted at Barclays Center before an enthusiastic crowd of about 15,177. Former UNC player Rashad McCants left his game with an injury.
