The line separating NBA stars from celebrities appears to be fading in recent years. NBA players are now equally as well-known as A-list celebrities, and the latter are showing a strong interest in the game even though they may not always be transitioning to the league. A glimpse of celebrities demonstrating their basketball skills may be found at the Celebrity All-Star game.

There are numerous examples of celebrities participating in the sport. Kevin Hart‘s playful 3-point “contest” with the Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green remains iconic. However, recently, an unexpected celebrity made waves in the basketball community. Maroon 5’s lead singer, Adam Levine, displayed flawless shooting abilities that are easily competitive with those of professional athletes.
