He's missed the last 3 games and 10 total due to knee soreness so I'm kinda surprised he is playing and the Bulls are cool with it.

Yeah they just drained his knee...

I thought you were exaggerating. I've heard of a few more, but not a ton.

Like, really:

Alex Toussaint (Peloton instructor)?

That dude is actually legit. He’s one of the best instructors and is a minor celebrity imo

It's hurts to get done with a big hollow needle but feels great right after.

Gimme Garland, akin to Kyrie in 2014.

The Sacramento Kings Social Responsibility Coordinator, a Peloton bike instructor, and a Fanatics All In Challenge Winner are considered celebrities? Wow!

planetmars · Post #32 » by **planetmars** » Sat Feb 19, 2022 12:34 am

My picks:

Rising Stars: Team Payton (Scottie/Ball/Duarte/etc)
Skills: Rooks
3pt: FVV
Dunk: Anthony
ASG: Team Lebron (MVP=Giannis)

Wasn't there a clutch shot contest between the rising stars? Or did they abandon that?

I feel better about my own lack of athleticism after watching these "Celebrities" hoop

Quavo, MGK, and Jack Harlow are definitely more popular.

Maybe. I don’t even know who Harlow is. I’m just thinking about how country music is so massively huge right now. MGK might be more well know tho after his beef with Eminem dating Megan Fox and the crue movie.

Why isn't the Celebrity game in Games section on NBA.com? I can't check the result.
