TBS has officially slated the return of Foul Play with Anthony Davis for a second round of hidden-camera celebrity pranks, scheduled to premiere on Monday, November 2, at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The unscripted format features NBA champion and ten-time NBA All-Star Anthony Davis orchestrating elaborate setups to catch fellow athletes and high-profile figures off guard alongside their close friends.
Opening Pranks Feature NFL and NBA Stars
The premiere episode kicks off with former NFL player Tyrann Mathieu walking into a faux children’s television appearance that quickly spirals out of control due to an erratic puppeteer. In another segment, investor Mark Cuban targets former NBA player Chandler Parsons with a malfunctioning T-shirt cannon, while Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray falls victim to a dinner reservation gone completely wrong after Davis orchestrates a problematic menu order.
Boxing Legend and Coaching Figures Targeted
Former heavyweight boxing champion Floyd Mayweather joins the lineup of guest pranksters, teaming up with Davis to target Los Angeles Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue at a charity event that rapidly unravels. Additional sports figures slated for upcoming appearances across the new run include Jayden Daniels, Braden Fiske, Osa Odighizuwa, Antonio Gates, Terron Armstead, Akbar Gbajabiamila, and Malik Jackson.
Extended Basketball and Skateboarding Lineup
The basketball roster expanding the prank pool includes Tristan Thompson, Darius Garland, Zach LaVine, Daniel Gafford, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Kobe Brown. Zach LaVine specifically targets his brother-in-law, Los Angeles Dodgers baseball player Blake Snell. Skateboarders Alex Midler, Sunny Suljic, and Jesse Sebastiani also feature in the upcoming episodes.
