The 2026 Ruffles NBA All-Star Celebrity Game just received a culture boost. ESPN and the NBA revealed the official rosters for this year’s matchup, and while the list is loaded with athletes and actors, all eyes are on GloRilla and DJ Mustard stepping onto the court.

Taking place Friday, (Feb. 13), at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, the annual celebrity showdown is known for its chaotic fun and viral moments—but Glo and Mustard bring a different kind of energy. One is a chart-dominating rapper who thrives under pressure, the other is a hitmaking producer who runs the West Coast. 

GloRilla has been on a nonstop run, turning authenticity into a superpower, taking up space in any room that she walks into—basketball court included. Whether it’s music or a moment like this, she knows how to show up and make it hers. Meanwhile, DJ Mustard is no stranger to the NBA All-Star weekend atmosphere, especially in L.A. His presence feels right at home, and if his competitive spirit matches his production credits, the opposing team should be a little nervous.

The celebrity roster also includes names like Keegan-Michael Key, Jeremy Lin, NFL stars Amon-Ra St. Brown and Keenan Allen, Brazilian soccer legend Cafu, internet favorites like Jenna Bandy and “Dude Perfect’s” Cody Jones, and reigning Celebrity Game MVP Rome Flynn. But even in a lineup full of heavy hitters, Glo and Mustard stand out as culture-shifters bringing real star power to the game.

The broadcast will be hosted by Monica McNutt, with Mark Jones and Richard Jefferson on commentary, while NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, Mookie Betts, and Anthony Anderson will serve as coaches. And because All-Star Weekend never stops at just basketball, the halftime show will feature K-pop group Cortis, marking the first Celebrity Game halftime performance by a K-pop act.

Before tipoff, fans can also tune into Hoop Streams, ESPN’s digital pregame show, airing live at 6:30 p.m. ET with Vanessa Richardson and Iman Shumpert setting the tone. Fans can catch the game live on ESPN, with streaming available on WatchESPN and the ESPN mobile app.
