LiAngelo Ball's girlfriend, Nikki Mudarris, celebrated her boyfriend's big live performance in an NFL game on Saturday in Detroit, which had NBA superstar Kevin Durant among those in the crowd.

Ball, known as 'G3 GELO' and brother of NBA stars Lonzo and LaMelo Ball, performed his latest hit and social media sensation song "Tweaker" during a timeout in the opening half of the NFL game between the Lions and the visiting Washington Commanders at Ford Field.

Mudarris, who shares a year-and-a-half-old son with Ball, took to Instagram stories to spotlight and share love to her beau, sharing a clip of his performance and dropping a sweet message that read:

"Yeahh my baby @gelo"

Love and support for G3 GELO

Durant, whose Phoenix Suns played the Detroit Pistons on Saturday, was impressed with the performance of LiAngelo Ball.

Prior to finding some success as a recording artist, Ball, 26, was trying his luck in making it to the NBA and joining his two other brothers. He did not have much success, only making it to the G League with the Charlotte Hornets affiliate Greensboro Swarm. But the basketball dream is still alive in him, vowing to continue pursuing it if solid opportunities arise.
