White Chocolate is back!
Well, kind of. BIG3, the basketball tournament for retired NBA players designed by Ice Cube among others, announced on Tuesday that Jason Williams will be joining the project.
Jason Williams says he's ready to give fans "exactly what they want to see" in his #BIG3 comeback.

Williams was best known for his flashy passes on the court, making him a fan favorite across the NBA. A pickup tournament with the best old dudes playing basketball is the perfect setting to accentuate those skills. it’s especially promising that he looks to be in great shape, destroying rec leagues across the country.
Fortunately for us, the 41-year-old appeared on Area 21 on TNT on Thursday and spoke about the league and confirmed his addition to the list of former players:

Williams will be joined by a host of former NBA stars participating as players and coaches. The list includes Chauncey Billups, Rick Mahorn, Clyde Drexler, Rick Barry, Allen Iverson and more.
We still don’t know what to expect from Big3 but the rosters seem great already. Jason Williams is just the icing on the white chocolate cake. Now if only Smush Parker, Kobe Bryant, and Lamar Odom team up again…
