Celebrity All-Star games have turned into a fan-favorite for both the MLB and NBA.
The MLB softball game can provide some laughs and entertainment, while the NBA game can be a chance for celebrities and other athletes to show off their abilities.
This was the case on Friday night, as three NFL athletes showed they were competent in other areas.
Puka Nacua, C.J. Stroud, and Micah Parsons all put together big games, but it was Parsons who walked away as the MVP from this game.
He ended up scoring 37 points, the most of any participant, as The Sporting News calls out.

Parsons talked a lot about his basketball abilities leading up to this game, but fans were unsure if he could deliver on his big promises.
He not only scored 37 points, but he did so in style, which had fans talking all over social media.
He should go play for the Mavs instead, the front office actually makes roster changes when necessary and the star player actually performs in the playoffs

Between drawing comparisons to Zion Williamson, to fans hinting he should join the Dallas Mavericks, it is clear that many fans were excited to see what Parsons could do.
However, others were concerned about how hard he tried in this game, especially since the Dallas Cowboys had a round-one exit in the playoffs.
Parsons was dominant on the hardwood, but fans were quickly reminded of his playoff performance, where he didn’t look his best.
It will be interesting to see if Parsons has any additional fallback from this, and what his 2024 season will look like as a result of some of this constructive criticism from fans.
