Calling it a “historic offer” to a “generational athlete,” Ice Cube said he’s still waiting for Clark, the University of Iowa guard, to respond to the opportunity.
Ice Cube, a co-founder of BIG3, the 3-on-3 league that attracts former NBA players and international players, confirmed the offer while responding to a TMZ story on X.
“We intended the offer to remain private while Caitlin Clark plays for the championship. But I won’t deny what’s now already out there: BIG3 made a historic offer to Caitlin Clark. Why wouldn’t we?” he wrote. “Caitlin is a generational athlete who can achieve tremendous success in the BIG3.”
Ice Cube, 54, whose name is O’Shea Jackson, said on X the BIG3 has already broken barriers by offering women head coaching jobs.
