"On behalf of the entire league, I want to be the first one to welcome Dwight to the BIG3," Ice Cube said. "His legacy speaks for itself, and he still has fun playing the game. We all know thatDwight Howard can do more on the basketball court than he was able to show in the NBA. So, it’s going to be nice to see him open up his game and show his all-around skills on the court in the BIG3. 

"He’s a perfect fit for the league, not just because of his athleticism and size but also due to our shared desire to grow the game of basketball around the world. We are honored that he has chosen to bring his game and star power to the BIG3. I look forward to seeing him challenge our 3-on-3 stars this summer and see if he can win himself another Championship."

Well, it didn't take long for Howard to make some noise in the BIG3. 

During the former All-Star center's debut on Saturday afternoon, he got in a fight with Lance Stephenson of the Miami 305.
