Yesterday, news spread across the web that 3-on-3 basketball will be an Olympic sport come Summer 2020 in Tokyo. While LaVar Ball has been prepping his squad since birth, Ice Cube’s BIG3 league laced with legends may have a jump on the half court game. Thanks to UNC standout Rashad McCants, the two parties may have a common thread, too.
Sporting the sorts of OG LeBrons, Huarache 2k4s and North Carolina-colored Air Jordan retros during his time in Chapel Hill, the Roc repping two-guard has something else in store for his BIG3 debut.
“I’ll be wearing the ZO2s. I’m a big supporter of entrepreneurship in my own community so the moment they launched their own brand it was a no brainer to support them. I also wanted to be the first professional athlete to wear them, so come June 25th if the shoe is here I’ll definitely be wearing them. If not, I have a decision to make between a couple shoes like the PG1s and some vintage Kobes that I’ll shock the world with.â€
Look for Rashad to wear Z02s and Nike bball heat on Team Trilogy with teammates Kenyon Martin, Al Harrington, James White and Dion Glover under Coach Rick Mahorn.
