Former NBA players Jason Williams and Rashard Lewis have been announced as members of the 3 Headed Monsters, the first official team in the new three-on-three Big3 basketball league, per SLAM:

The pair played together for a season-and-a-half on the Orlando Magic from 2009 to 2011.

Williams, 41, was one of the most exciting passers in NBA history, averaging 10.5 points and 5.9 assists per game over a career that included stops with the Sacramento Kings, Memphis Grizzlies, Miami Heat and the Magic.

Even after his career, he has continued to make appearances in pro-am competitions and hasn't lost his passing touch. The Big3 shared a Williams highlight reel on Twitter:

Yes, he's still the master of the flashy pass.

Lewis, meanwhile, carved out a niche for himself in the league as an excellent three-point marksman, finishing his career as a 38.6 percent shooter from beyond the arc. His 1,787 three-point buckets are the 12th-most in NBA history. He averaged 14.9 points and 5.2 rebounds per game in stints with the Seattle Supersonics, Magic, Washington Wizards and Heat.

He was also a two-time NBA All-Star, and as Ian Kenyon of Bleacher Report noted, Lewis likely would have fit perfectly in today's three-point heavy, floor-spacing league:

Certainly, Williams and Lewis will be expected to hook up for quite a few drive-and-kick three-point buckets. They should be a solid pair for the 3 Headed Monsters in the new league started by Ice Cube and former NBA player and NBPA deputy executive director Roger Mason Jr.

Other former NBA players committed to play in the league include Allen Iverson, Chauncey Billups, Kenyon Martin, Stephen Jackson and Jermaine O’Neal.
