NEW YORK — Ice Cube has dreamed about seeing his favorite NBA players come out of retirement.

Now, he’s going to make it happen. The rapper turned entertainment mogul is starting a 3-on-3 league for former professional basketball players.

And one of his favorites, Allen Iverson, has signed on as a player/coach in Big3. The two were at a news conference Wednesday to introduce the new league.

“As a fan I’m excited to see the guys I know who can still strap it up and play at a competitive, high level,” Ice Cube said.
