Patrick Mahomes takes back Mavs Arena from Travis Kelce as former Heat star and other celebrities fill NBA Celebrity Row for Game 3.
After some light-hearted banter yesterday, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes reclaimed the Mavericks’ home turf today from tight end Travis Kelce. The drama began when the NHL tweeted a gif of Kelce at the Stanley Cup game between the Dallas Stars and the Edmonton Oilers on May 26, 2024. Mahomes quickly reposted the gif with a pointed caption: “Yo, get out of my arena!! @tkelce, go @DallasStars!!!”
The “Takeover” was completed today during the Mavs vs. Wolves NBA playoffs on May 27, 2024. Mahomes, accompanied by former Miami Heat star Victor Oladipo, made a grand entrance that electrified the crowd. Sports journalist Dorothy J. Gentry captured the moment, tweeting, “Patrick Mahomes and Victor Oladipo in the house for tonight’s #Mavs #Wolves game. #nbaplayoffs.”
But Mahomes wasn’t the only celebrity to grace the Mavs’ court. Legendary Mavs icon Dirk Nowitzki also arrived, adding to the star-studded spectacle. Nowitzki, whose legacy is etched in NBA history, represented the team’s past glory and its lasting impact on the league.
However, the real surprise came when DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia and Guitar Slayer Jus Lyons took their seats courtside. Adding to the excitement, Marquise Brown also made an appearance. The Mavs’ arena buzzed with excitement as these luminaries gathered to witness a pivotal Game 3. As the Mavs battled the Wolves, the question remained: Would Mahomes’ presence tip the scales in their favor?
