    3 on 3 Basketball Will Be Played in 2020 Olypmics

    Should be fun. Doubt we will see any of the big names play in it. I'd guess it will mostly be retired players, college players and street hoopers. Maybe some of the weaker NBA guys will play.

    Awesome. Half Court 3 on 3 is my game. I shoot NBA 3s all day.

    Why would you doubt big names will play? 3 on 3 is good fun, and NBA players like representing their country in the Olympics. I can see someone like Isiah Thomas or Jamal Crawford taking part. They play streetball all summer I hear.

    NBA players are so buddy buddy nowadays I wouldn't be surprised if James snubbed the 12-man team and signed up for this with Paul & Anthony/ Wade.

    Well the big names likely won't play since they will be playing on the USA basketball team. Not sure how much pull it will have with the other guys. There could be NBA players, I read an article saying it will most likely be retired guys, undrafted guys from college and street hoopers, but that was speculation.
