The BIG3, a professional 3-on-3 league co-founded by Ice Cube and populated by a myriad of ex-NBA stars, has entered its second season. The league began its 10-week season last Friday in Houston.
Each regular-season date will feature four consecutive games, so every team will play each week. Playoffs will be held on Aug. 17, with the championship the following week on Aug. 24.
The addition of a second co-captain roster spot has allowed even more ex-NBAplayers to sign up, including newcomers Amar'e Stoudemire, Metta World Peace and Baron Davis. Last season's title went to Trilogy, which will return five of its players, including 2017 Championship MVP Rashad McCants.
Below is all the information you need about this summer's BIG3 action.
