Former Eagles star and Pro Football Hall of Famer, Terrell Owens, is set to make a comeback in the NBA’s Celebrity game during All-Star Weekend. The 51-year-old Owens, known as one of the greatest receivers of all time, will be playing in the game for the fourth time, marking his first appearance since 2010.
Owens previously appeared in the game every year from 2008-2010, winning the MVP award in his first two appearances. He was the only player to win multiple MVPs until comedian/actor Kevin Hart caught up in 2013. Owens and Hart are the only participants to have won the MVP award multiple times.
This year, Owens will be joined on the court by former NBA players Matt Barnes and Baron Davis, Olympic track and field medalists Masai Russell and Shelby McEwen, as well as WNBA stars Allisha Gray and Kayla Thornton. The teams will be coached by rapper 2 Chainz, Hall of Fame receiver Jerry Rice, former San Francisco Giants player Barry Bonds, and influencer Khaby Lame.
The NBA Celebrity game has become a popular event during All-Star Weekend, featuring a mix of actors, musicians, comedians, reality stars, and influencers. Owens’ return to the game adds to the excitement for fans eager to see their favorite celebrities showcase their basketball skills.
