Los Angeles, Calif. – Mickey Mouse celebrated basketball and family fun with a special appearance at the much-anticipated L.A. Clippers vs. Cleveland Cavaliers game at the STAPLES Center, Los Angeles on Sunday March 13th. Mickey participated in a ceremonial pre-game tip-off with Make-A-Wish recipients as well as entertaining the crowd with a half-time show encouraging fans of all ages to join #TeamMickey by getting up, moving around and having fun!
Fans in attendance at the game enjoyed three never-before-seen cartoon clips showing Mickey’s basketball skills, as well as video footage from when Mickey dropped into a practice session with Clippers players Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan, Cole Aldrich, Wesley Johnson and Paul Pierce.
