In March, The BIG3 was named “Best in Web3” by Sports Business Journal for the league’s groundbreaking Web3 Project, Forever Experience Action Tokens (FEATs), offering utility and ownership-like value in BIG3 teams via blockchain technology. In season five, it was Stephen Jackson’s Trilogy who took home the Dr. J Championship Trophy to become the first-ever back-to-back BIG3 champions and the first team in league history to win three titles.
