New Orleans native and rap legend Master P was one of the biggest stars in the All-Star Celebrity Game on Friday night in New Orleans, but the once semi-pro baller did not bring his A, B, or C-game to the court this year.
Master P appeared to be out of practice and extremely rusty when it came to hooping on Friday night in the Superdome. He had a number of missed shots and rough moments on the court from a player most anticipated would be one of the better performers (I mean, he did once almost make it to the NBA).
If Master P was hoping that performance would slide under the radar with the rest of the All-Star game excitement, Shaq and the TNT crew made sure that didn’t happen by making him the focal point of their All-Star “Shaqtin’ the Fool” segment.

Shaq and the crew roasted Master P for his two worst moments of the game, as he had a missed layup while wide open under the basket and later fumbled the ball out of bounds with no one around him on an outlet pass.
Shaq also poked fun at Kyrie Irving’s flat Earth theory by joking that his jumper was flat in the three-point contest with one of his bad misses, and Eric Gordon’s reach for a phantom ball on the rack after the money ball also got some laughs. However, you’d have to expect poor Master P to end up as the worst of the worst this week with one of his two embarrassing moments.
