Big 3’s

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The term big 3 has been widely used at least since the Celtics went with Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett. The term still applies today as many teams, at all levels, have their own version of a Big 3. Let's look at some Big 3's that have been brought up recently in Michigan.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>NORTH FARMINGTON</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985666"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Hurst is a special athlete, but above all else, he's a basketball player through and through.
