NBAer Chris Paul Teams Up with Bowling Association

July 19 - Chris Paul, New Orleans Hornets' All-Star guard, is teaming with the Professional Bowlers Association for the inaugural Chris Paul PBA Celebrity Invitational.

The charity event is scheduled to take place on Sept. 20 in Winston-Salem, N.C., home of Wake Forest, Paul's alma mater. ESPN will air the taped event on Oct. 19.

The event will feature a field of five NBA stars who will team up with five PBA bowling stars to form five doubles teams consisting of one NBA celebrity and one pro bowler in a special made-for-TV fundraising event. The PBA and Paul's CP3 Foundation announced today the creation of the inaugural Chris Paul PBA Celebrity Invitational presented by the brands of Ebonite International which will be televised on ESPN.

The event is also sponsored by USBC, of which Paul has served as a spokesman since 2007. Paul through the USBC has helped to broaden the visibility and participation of bowling through national advertising and promotional campaigns including instructional bowling videos he has made with professional bowlers such as Barnes.

The NBA players are yet to be announced, but previous participants in Paul's charity weekend bowling event have included fellow All-Stars and Team USA members LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard.
