Chiefs WR Mecole Hardman will play in the NBA Celebrity All-Star game

The victory tour is underway for the Kansas City Chiefs following their Super Bowl LVIII victory. The media appearances around the country allow each player to share their story after completing the rare back-to-back title championship.

The latest appearance involving Super Bowl hero Mecole Hardman involves him getting on the basketball court. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Hardman has been added to Friday night’s NBA Celebrity All-Star game in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The annual showcase featuring celebrities, influencers, and sports figures is a light-hearted game that is more about fun than competition. Hardman will join ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith’s team facing off against another celebrity group led by Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe. Houston Texans quarterback CJ Stroud, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, and Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons will also participate.

Hardman is well known for his fantastic speed on the football field, so seeing how it translates on the basketball court will be a treat. The 2024 Ruffles NBA All-Star Celebrity Game will take place at Lucas Oil Stadium at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN.
