MEEELJ would like to thank everyone who participated in and attended our first Celebrity Basketball Game, helping to make it a huge success. The game was filled with exciting highlights from start to finish, beginning with Kayla singing a moving rendition of the National Anthem and mesmerizing the crowd of 235. The DJ kept the crowd’s enthusiasm pumped throughout the game as former NBA all-star Terry Cummings coached the home team against Roy Jones Jr.’s BodyHead Bangerz All Star Team.

The score remained close down to the final play, ultimately ending with the BodyHead Bangerz winning by just 2 points! The event closed on a high note, however, as Choppa (who performed during the half time show), Terry Cummings, All Star Team Members and Roy Jones Jr.’s Representatives all graciously signed autographs for the fans.

MEEELJ was extremely proud to bring the community together for such a positive event, and greatly appreciated the support of all who attended. We look forward to doing it again!
