C.J. Stroud impresses in celeb game, but Cowboys' star steals show

Two of the top football talents in the Lone Star State took to the hardwood Friday night as C.J. Stroud and Micah Parsons squared off in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. The battle lived up to the billing.

The Houston Texans' signal caller followed his MVP performance in Thursday's Cactus Jack Classic with a 32-point effort as the leader of Team Stephen A. Smith. But Stroud's output paled in comparison to Parsons. The Dallas Cowboys' defensive star ran into little resistance as he bullied his way to the rim at will, ending the night with 37 points and 16 rebounds.
