Puka Nacua will officially play in tonight’s NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, as will C.J. Stroud, Micah Parsons and Mecole Hardman

Puka Nacua is going to take his talents from the football field to the basketball court for one night, and it’s going to be in front of a huge audience. Nacua told Pat McAfee last week that he wanted to play in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game and while it was never officially confirmed that Nacua was added to the game, McAfee did what he could to get the Rams receiver in on the fun.

Adam Schefter posted on Twitter that Nacua will officially play in the Celebrity Game in Indianapolis, as will C.J. Stroud, Micah Parsons and Mecole Hardman. The NBA All-Star account confirmed the news, too, revealing that Nacua will be on Team Shannon, which is coached by Shannon Sharpe.

Nacua is a talented basketball player, scoring 961 points, grabbing 417 rebounds and recording 316 assists in his four years at Orem High School in Utah.

He scored a career-high 27 points during the 2017-2018 season, grabbing six rebounds with two steals in that game against Desert Hills.

The NBA All-Star Celebrity Game will air on ESPN at 7 p.m. ET tonight at Lucas Oil Stadium. Below are the full rosters for each team.
