Oh, sorry, not that Michael Jordan, this Michael Jordan. As in, Michael B. Jordan, aka Wallace from The Wire, and the star of the critically acclaimed film Fruitvale Station. He’ll be joined by celebrity game regulars Kevin Hart (perennial winner of the Nelly Award for “Guy Who Tries Way Too Hard In This Game”), U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan (bringing his Old Man Game), and Mariah Carey’s husband, along with Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg of ESPN’s Mike & Mike, Victoria’s Secret model Erin Heatherton, crackhead defender Bruce Bowen, and Sportscenter anchor Stan Verrett. WNBA ballers Skylar Diggins and Elena Delle Donne round out the ringers of the squads.
The teams will be coached by NBA Countdown co-hosts Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose. The game will air on ESPN on Friday, Feb. 14th at 7 pm Eastern.
