Delonte West is attempting a hoops comeback ... the former NBA player who's battled addiction and legal issues over the years tried out for the Big 3 today -- and it's pretty great to see.
38-year-old West was in Washington D.C. at Athletic Republic for try-outs for the 3-on-3 league that mostly features retired NBA stars.
Guys like Joe Johnson, Reggie Evans, and Leandro Barbosa played in the BIG 3 last season.
No word yet on how Delonte performed at the try-out (West looked good knocking down a couple 3s) .
