OAKLAND — Ice Cube and Amy Trask, the rapper and the lawyer, would make for a good sitcom if they weren’t so busy spearheading their rising 3-on-3 basketball league.
The two are longtime friends, going back at least 20 years and bonded by their connection to the Raiders. Now they are business partners whose contrasting skill sets are combining to get Big3 basketball off the ground.
“It’s been great just seeing how tough she is,” Cube told the Bay Area News Group on Thursday night.
The league makes its Oakland debut with a four-game set at Oracle Arena on Friday night after averaging about 15,000 fans at its first two stops.
