DJ Khaled Helps Los Angeles Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan With His Slam Dunk
DJ Khaled is everywhere these days. On Saturday night (Feb. 18), he was smack dab in the middle of the action in the 2017 NBA Slam Dunk Contest, as the We The Best CEO provided an assitst for the Los Angles Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan.
For his dunk, the 7-foot center devised a plan to jump over Khaled, and a DJ booth, while the energetic song curator held the ball high over his head.
“Oh my goodness. Where’s the helmet?” said commentator Reggie Miller before the attempt. Of course, the social media gawd had to get the whole thing on video. “DJ Khaled is Snapchatting with his right hand and holding the ball with his left,” added Miller.
Jordan ended up pulling off the dunk without a hitch, to the delight of a smiling Khaled. Sadly, the consensus is the overall dunk contest was lackluster, especially compared to last year’s showing. But at least Asahd’s dad got his shining moment.
The actual All-Star Game was last night (Feb. 19). The stars were in the building including Jay Z, Beyonce and daughter Blue Ivy, who had front row seats to the action. It was all about the N.O., as New Orleans Pelicans’ Anthony Davis ran away with the MVP after scoring 52 points to lead the West over the East 192-182.
