Report: Big3 to Launch Quarantined Tournament in April Amid Coronavirus Pandemic

The Big3 plans to hold a 3-on-3 tournament in April featuring players who have tested negative for the coronavirus and who are willing to be quarantined in a Los Angeles house with a basketball facility on site, according to Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes.

The tournament is an attempt to appease potential fans who are currently without live professional sports as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

“As long as we can protect the players, which we will do through proper testing and quarantine, Ice Cube and I feel we can give fans some safe, entertaining brand of basketball to get everyone through this pandemic,” league founder Jeff Kwatinetz told Yahoo Sports.
