Justin Bieber hit the hardwood for a basketball showdown on Thursday … helping his team to a victory over his former squad!!
All eyes were on the 31-year-old “Swag” crooner at SRGN Studios in Los Angeles for The League festivities … a good sight for those who might have been worried about his recent ankle injury.

After a pregame pump-up speech from pastor Judah Smith, Bieber had two points in the first quarter for his SKYLRK clothing brand’s squad … before asking to be subbed out about two and a half minutes after the start.
He hustled around the court in the second in a more supporting role … and by halftime, SKYLRK was up nine against Nahmias — the same team Bieber played for back in 2023.
JB had a near show-stopping highlight coming out of the half, when he perfectly executed an AND 1 Streetball-esque move on this opponent … but unfortunately for him, it didn’t result in points as the rock wound up in an opponent’s hands.
He redeemed himself a few possessions later … when he hit a mid-range J to get the crowd back into it.

The Biebs capped off the night with a deep two-pointer … securing the 93-74 win for the good guys (that is, if you’re rooting for the “Yukon” singer’s crew).

Rolled my ankle, too hazardous.
But made the low joints

It was ultimately a so-so outing for the musician if we wanna be all critical about it … but cut him some slack — he might still be recovering from the ailment he suffered at the hands of his clunky SKYLRK slides, which he actually discontinued due to the mishap.

Bieber spent some time at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio following the Coachella headlining news this past week … but it’s nice to see he’s still making time for his fitness amid set prep.
