>>> ICE CUBE IS A LEGENDARY HIP-HOP ARTIST, PROLIFIC
PRODUCER, BLOCKBUSTER MOVIE STAR WHO JUST LANDED A SPOT ON THE
HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME. ALSO A DIEHARD SPORTS FAN.
>> HE DECIDED TO CREATE HIS OWN BASKETBALL LEAGUE BECAUSE WHY
NOT? IT'S CALLED BIG THREE, A
PROFESSIONAL THREE ON THREE HALF-COURT BASKETBALL LEAGUE
WITH GAMES EVERY WEEKEND THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER AT ARENAS
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. >> THE BEST PART, SOME OF YOUR
FAVORITE FORMER NBA STARS BACK ON THE COURT.
ICE CUBE, GOOD MORNING. NICE TO HAVE YOU HERE.
>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME. >> I LOVE THIS IDEA, HOW DID YOU
THINK OF IT? >> JUST AS A FAN, WHEN YOU SEE
SOMEBODY LIKE KOBE RETIRE AND SCORE 60 POINTS HIS LAST GAME,
YOU THINK, MAN, SOMEBODY WANTS TO SEE THIS GUY PLAY AGAIN.
I STARTED THINKING OF OTHER PROS THAT PEOPLE WANT TO SEE PLAY
AGAIN. THEY RETIRED BECAUSE FULL COURT,
NBA SCHEDULE SO GRUELING BUT THESE GUYS TOPNOTCH BASKETBALL
PLAYERS. HALF-COURT THREE ON THREE.
HERE WE ARE, BIG THREE. >> THE BEST OF NBA AND STREET
BALL. >> WITHOUT A DOUBT.
THREE ON THREE BASKETBALL IS ACTUALLY THE MOST PLAYED FORM OF
TEAM BASKETBALL IN THE WORLD BECAUSE YOU GET IN BACK YARDS,
PLAYGROUNDS, SCHOOL YARDS. EVERYBODY GROWS UM WITH THREE ON
THREE. WE FELT LIKE WHY NOT TAKE THIS
TO THE PRO LEVEL. WHY NOT BRING IT FROM THE
BACKYARD AND STREET TOPS TO INSIDE THE ARENA.
THAT'S HOW WE GOT BIG THREE. >> ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS IS
THAT KIDS CAN ACTUALLY GO FOR FREE.
>> YES. >> YOU CAME UP WITH YOU, AND ONE
OF THE PLAYERS CAME UP WITH THIS IDEA.
TELL ME ABOUT THAT. >> RASHARD LEWIS, A GREAT GUY.
WHAT'S COOL, HE SAID, MY KIDS GET TO SEE ME PLAY.
LET'S COME UP WITH THIS IDEA KIDS UNDER 13 CAN GET IN FREE.
IF YOU GO TO THE BOX OFFICE, YOU BUY A TICKET.
YOU WITH YOUR SON, DAUGHTER, NIECE, NEPHEW, THEY CAN GET IN
FREE. >> 14-SECOND SHOT CLOCK AND A
FOUR-POINT SHOT. >> FOUR-POINT SHOT.
THIRTY FEET AWAY. I THINK -- I THINK THE GLOBE
TROTTERS WAS THE FIRST ONES WITH IT, BUT IT'S NEVER BEEN IN PRO
BASKETBALL. SO WE WANTED TO BE THE FIRST.
WE THINK NBA WILL FOLLOW US SOON WITH THIS FOUR-POINT SHOT.
IT'S GREAT. WHAT'S COOL, IF YOU CAN'T MAKE
IT TO THE GAMES YOU CAN SEE US ON MONDAY NIGHT BASKETBALL FS1
EVERY NIGHT 8:00 TO 11:00 EASTERN.
>> PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WATCH. >> YEAH.
>> YOU JUST GOT A STAR ON THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME.
HOW DOES THAT FEEL? >> I'M STILL GLOWING BECAUSE OF
THAT. BECAUSE YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER
THINK ABOUT GETTING A STAR. YOU JUST DO YOUR WORK, DO YOUR
THING. YOU LOOK UP AND THEY REWARD YOU
WITH SOMETHING LIKE THIS. IT WAS COOL, BECAUSE I HAD MY
FAMILY, MY FRIENDS, ALL THE ONES I STARTED WITH THERE FROM DRE'
TO D.J. TO EVERYBODY COMING OUT TO SUPPORT IT.
>> FULL CIRCLE FOR YOU. >> STRAIGHT FULL CIRCLE.
>> WOW. WE'VE GOT YOU HERE.
WE FIGURE WE MAY AS WELL PLAY A LITTLE BASKETBALL.
WE CAN'T DO THREE ON THREE. >> LET'S DO THIS.
