All Star Ballers: Celebs Who Could Play in the NBA

We're picking our dream teams for All-Star Weekend.

Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps - These two were so convincing as college athletes-turned-professional hoops stars in Love & Basketball (one of our fave baskbetball movies of all time), that we'd love to see them recreate the magic during All-Star Weekend.  (Photo: Courtesy of New Line Cinema)
Kevin Hart - If the best defense is a good offense, then no six-foot-something athlete could be a match for Kev Hart's "make 'em laugh" plays. All he has to do is crack a few jokes, wait for his opponent to double over with laughter and steal the ball right out of his hand.  (Photo: NBC)
Master P - The world knows him as a world famous rapper and successful entrepreneur, but P. Miller was the ultimate multi-tasker in the late 1990s when he simultaneously played professional ball. Miller was signed to the Charlotte Hornets and the Toronto Raptors during his short-lived NBA career. We'd like to draft this All-Star Weekend veteran back!

The Do the Right Thing director has a permanent parking spot at Madison Square Garden and is often more vocal than the referees during New York Knicks games. Maybe it's time he put his skills where his mouth is?  (Photo: Al Bello/Getty Images)
