Looking back at Ludaday on Labor Day...

The 2013 LudaDay Weekend Celebrity Game is in the books, along with over $20,000 raised for charity efforts buoyed by The Ludacris Foundation.

You can check out the archived webcast at theSUVtv.com and LudaDayWeekend.com. This year's matchup featured John Wall of Team Ludacris and Team Usher's Jarrett Jack - both had 30+ points a piece in a game that went to overtime. Other participants and celebrity game attendees included James Harden, Kenneth Faried, Shannon Brown, Bernard James, Raymond Felton, Angel McCoughtry, Big Tigger, Raven Simone, Monica, and many more...

Special thanks to The Ludacris Foundation, DTP Records, Ebony Son Entertainment, and Future Phenom for their sponsorship of the 2013 live webcast. Here's a look at the signature 3D poster created by @Future_Phenom for the event:

Here's a little background info on Ludaday Weekend and the Celebrity Basketball Game that's a part of it:

"LudaDay Weekend is an annual charity weekend committed to giving back to the Atlanta community through fundraising on behalf of The Ludacris Foundation. Ludacris, DTP Records, and Ebony Son Management have coordinated a plethora of activities, secured celebrity support, and generated media awareness to better the lives of college students, families and individuals who participate in the LudaDay Weekend festivities. LudaDay Weekend is by far the longest running celebrity-endorsed charity weekend in Atlanta, and arguably the nation. LudaDay Weekend is centered around giving back and community awareness through exclusive events and parties in Atlanta.

Held during Labor Day Weekend, the celebrity basketball game has quickly become one of the most anticipated events. Each year NBA players, radio personalities, and those in the music industry participate. It will be held at GSU Sports Arena on Sunday, September 1st."
