Keenan Allen and Amon-Ra St. Brown will go head-to-head later this month, but the battle won\u2019t be on a football field.<\/p>\n
The NFL superstars will actually square off on hardwood \u2014 as the NBA revealed on Tuesday the Lions receiver (a native of Anaheim Hills, Calif.) and the Chargers wideout will be on opposing teams during the 2026 Ruffles NBA All-Star Celebrity Game.<\/p>\n
It will all go down on Feb. 13 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, Calif., and the pass catchers were just two of many notable figures who will suit up for the annual exhibition.<\/p>\n
