Bayley, who hails from San Jose, is not new to basketball. She was the Independence High School girls’ basketball team captain before becoming famous in WWE. Her selection of Team Rice, led by Jerry Rice, creates an exciting local connection to the game. She will join a diverse group of athletes and entertainers, including six-time Grammy-nominated artist Shaboozey and legendary wide receiver Terrell Owens.

Bayley has been hinting at her participation by posting clips of her basketball workouts on social media in the last few weeks, showing that she’s been working hard to prepare for the big event. The NBA Celebrity All-Star Game has had a history of WWE Superstars making a significant impact. In 2023, The Miz had a chance to win the match when he hit a half-court buzzer-beater over Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf, but the shot was disallowed. Bayley has the opportunity to create her own highlight moments on the hardwood.

Fans can catch all the action live at 7 p.m. ET on February 14. It is available on ESPN platforms, including ESPN, ESPN+, and Disney+. This year, the NBA Celebrity All-Star Game will feature diverse talent and personalities, making it a must-watch event.
