Jimmy Kimmel Live guest host we want to see: Blake Griffin
The restart of the NBA season did not include every team in the league. That left some players, like Blake Griffin, with an empty schedule this summer. A spot guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live! would be the perfect way for Griffin to stay busy.
While continuing to play at an all-star level for the Detroit Pistons, Griffin has been building up his comedy career. He acted in the comedy The Female Brain with Whitney Cummings, destroyed at the Comedy Central Roast of Alec Baldwin, and has demonstrated his charisma and sense of humor in countless interviews.
Hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live! would be another impressive addition to Griffin’s comedy resume. He also has a new podcast, The Pursuit of Healthiness, to promote so the extra attention certainly wouldn’t hurt, either.
Griffin would have a wide range of people willing to join him for an interview. He could connect with the friends he’s made in the comedy world or check in with an NBA player currently living and playing in the bubble in Florida. A Blake Griffin hosted episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! would be sure to have something for everyone.
