    Ice Cube at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida on Aug. 14, 2022.
    The Boston Celtics are champions of the NBA, which means that the Big 3 ’s arrival in Tampa is just in time.

    Week two in Ice Cube’s seven-year-old, fun-as-hell, three-on-three league is at the Yuengling Center and features six matches that will feature fan favorites (including four-point shots), ex-NBA and international players on a half-court trying to end the game by being the first team to score 50 points (win by two, obviously).


    The league— which brought its championship to Amalie Arena in 2022 —just announced expansion into Miami , and maybe Tampa Bay could be the next city to get a team if fans show out.

    Expect Cube to be in the house, too, since he’s also opening for Red Hot Chilli Peppers in Tampa this weekend.

    Tickets to week two of the Big3 basketball league happening Saturday, June 22 at Tampa’s Yuengling Center are still available and start at $22.
