Utah Jazz alumni: Joe Johnson, Al Jefferson, Triplets advance to BIG3 Championship

Three weeks ago, former beloved Utah Jazz players Joe Johnson and Al Jefferson along with their BIG3 team Triplets needed some late-game heroics to overcome a tough 3-Headed Monsters squad. Those heroics came in the form of a big-time comeback after trailing by double figures, and more specifically in a breath-taking step-back four-point shot by Iso Joe to seal a 50-48 come-from-behind victory for his Triplets squad.

It was undeniably one of the most exhilarating games and moments in the BIG3’s young history.

Ironically, Johnson and Jefferson took on the 3-Headed Monsters yet again on Sunday afternoon in the first round of the 2019 BIG3 Playoffs.
