    I think the big story here is The Big 3's legitimacy. Joe probably got more shots and exposure then he would have in China or the D-League. Big win for Ice Cube.

    I'd rather play in the Big 3 League that with the Pistons, even if that would cost me money.

    Probably just a training camp deal, my bet is JJ doesn’t make it into the regular season.

    he's having Achilles issues and for a 38 year old, it doesn't seem worth it anymore. especially on a non guaranteed deal

    I thought the league blacklisted his ass post Rockets.

    How come he gets a farewell tour and other outspoken and better players don't?!?!! #SAS

    Seven-time NBA All-Star Joe Johnson has an upcoming workout with the Milwaukee Bucks later this week, HoopsHype has learned.

    Johnson, 39, has appeared in 120 career playoff games and could add a veteran presence to Milwaukee’s locker room who can stretch the floor and create in isolation situations if needed.

    In February, Johnson was a headline member of the USA Basketball Men’s AmeriCup Qualifying Team. He averaged 11 points, nine rebounds and 6.5 assists in 26 minutes per game on 50 percent shooting from the field and 40 percent from downtown in two games.

    After playing well in the BIG3 during the summer of 2019, Johnson signed with the Detroit Pistons in September but was waived a month later.

    He last appeared in the NBA with the Houston Rockets during the 2018 playoffs. Now, he’s hoping to make a comeback with the Bucks as they gear up for an arms race for the Eastern Conference title with the Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers.

    Love the guy, but what's with these millionaire athletes not being able to manage their money? NBA contracts should require a consultation with a reputable financial advisor
