Former NBA player Nick Young is speaking out about his alleged experiences as a member of Ice Cube’s BIG3 league, VIBE reports. As previously reported by AfroTech, the league officially became certified as the first professional Black-owned sports league. The 3-on-3 league first debuted in 2017, thanks to Ice Cube and entertainment executive Jeff Kwatinetz. Over the years, it has incorporated technology to enhance the experience between both fans and their adored players.
Snoop Dogg has purchased a minority stake in Bivouac, a team a part of Ice Cube’s BIG3 basketball league. According to a press release, Snoop Dogg joined venture capitalist and co-founder of PayPal Ken Howery to buy 25 Fire-Tier editions of Bivouac. While Snoop Dogg can officially celebrate becoming a team owner, he hinted at it in a video clip posted in late April by Ice Cube on Twitter. Snoop is buying 2 teams in the BIG3.
