Amare Stoudemire Hoping BIG3 Play Will Lead To NBA Comeback

Amar’e Stoudemire is looking to return to the NBA, where he spent 14 years, and is looking at BIG3 to serve as his spring board to do so.

Stoudemire retired from the NBA in July of 2016, but he is now taking part in Ice Cube’s immensely popular BIG3 league, which just announced that they are heading to South Florida.

Stoudemire is hoping to get back to the NBA.

“I’m definitely going to make that push,” Stoudemire said, according to the Miami Herald’s Jordan McPherson. “Hopefully, that becomes reality.”

“My body just started to feel so good that I thought I have to make it back to the NBA,” Stoudemire continued. “I retired early to live overseas. I always wanted to live in Israel for one year. I retired early to accomplish that, but now that I accomplished that, I want to make my way back to the NBA.”

While Stoudemire isn’t the superstar he once was, he is hopeful that his veteran leadership can help an NBA team in need.

“I feel like there are a lot of teams out there that can use that, but I think at the moment teams are working on signing free agents so I’m probably going to fall down on the totem pole a bit until teams are ready to sign people who are on the lower scale as far as contracts are concerned.”
