GloRilla\u2019s teammate, actor Rome Flynn, won his second consecutive celeb game MVP award, finishing with 17 points. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"related-link\"><span class=\"exclude-from-newsgate\"><strong style=\"margin-right:3px\">GLORILLA IN MEMPHIS: <\/strong><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialappeal.com\/story\/entertainment\/music\/2025\/07\/26\/glorilla-memphis-concert-review-glo-bash\/85240041007\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">GloRilla cements status as queen of Memphis rap with Glo Bash \u2014 and takes a victory lap<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In clips circulated by the NBA, GloRilla looked ready during a Feb. 12 practice ahead of the game, hitting her jump shot consistently, under the watchful eye of basketball trainer Chris \u201cLethal Shooter\u201d Matthews.<\/p>\n<p>In the first half of the game, GloRilla took one of just two shots on the night, but her long two-pointer was wide of the mark. At halftime, she received encouragement form her boyfriend, Toronto Raptors player and NBA All-Star Brandon Ingram, who told her she \u201cneeded to shoot 20 more shots.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the second half, GloRilla turned up the defense. With the score tied at 39 in the 3rd quarter, she fought and won a jump ball against reality TV star Taylor Frankie Paul. Glo would also finish with two rebounds on the night. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>GloRilla is the second notable Memphis musician to appear in the celebrity game. In 2002 and 2003, Memphis-born, Millington-bred pop star Justin Timberlake made his mark in the competition, in a now famous moment where he hit a jumper over former NBA player and longtime analyst Kenny Smith.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.commercialappeal.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Memphis native GloRilla\u00a0brings early Christmas gift to alma mater Memphis native GloRilla\u00a0brings early Christmas gift to her alma mater, Melrose High School.
