Hip-Hop star Ludacris will lend support to an upcoming breast cancer awareness event being held in conjunction with the WNBA’s Atlanta Dream women’s basketball team. The “Dream Pink” basketball game takes place August 29 and has already sold over 9,000 tickets, as fans will watch the Atlanta Dream square off against the Connecticut Sun, at Philips Arena. In addition to Ludacris’ appearance, Jarvis, the latest singer signed to Disturbing Tha Peace, will be the featured halftime performance. The day is also special for Ludacris, who is a fan UNC alumni and Dream point guard Ivory Latta. “I have been a long time fan and supporter of Ivory Latta since she was at North Carolina,” Ludacris told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “She is a little sister and family to me. It is even greater that she plays for an Atlanta team. I want to be there to show my love and support for the Atlanta Dream, Ivory Latta, the city of Atlanta and my artist Jarvis.” The “Dream Pink” game tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 pm.
