Last year’s champs.
Recession leaving you tight on cash? Need a vacation? Well if you can ball, or know three people who are smooth with the rock, you can win $2,000 and a trip to Miami . . .
The BK 3 on 3 is back! This year it will be played at Gauchos Gym in the Bronx. Be sure to sign your team up here.
Last year’s New York champs were Darren “Primal Fear” Phillip, James “Speedy” Williams, Junie “Mr. Excitement” Sanders and B.J. “The Beast” McFarlane. Bring your A game.
