Dwight Howard Joins BIG3's Los Angeles Riot as Player-Captain

The Hall of Famer aims to bring another championship to Los Angeles and help grow the league globally while mentoring his son through the game.

Dwight Howard, recently inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, has signed with the Los Angeles Riot in Ice Cube's BIG3 league.
Howard will serve as a player-captain alongside Jordan Crawford and Elijah Stewart, with former NBA player Nick Young as the team's coach.
The BIG3 has transitioned to a city-based format, with teams representing cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Miami to foster local rivalries and fan engagement.
Howard expressed his dual goals of securing another championship for Los Angeles and contributing to the global expansion of the BIG3 league.
His move to the BIG3 also aligns with a personal goal of mentoring his son, whose basketball skills have improved through exposure to the three-on-three format.
