KANSAS City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes went viral for his bling while appearing at a Dallas Mavericks game, but he also wasn’t afraid to reveal his belief that an NBA star could play in the NFL.
The Chiefs quarterback, 28, shared the belief while on hand for the Mavericks-Oklahoma City Thunder NBA Playoffs Game 3 matchup on Saturday.

And Patrick was the one who turned heads, and for two particular reasons.
The first reason was Mahomes’ choice of jewelry: a necklace of black diamonds with a diamond cross.
Mahomes paired the shiny accessory with a simple white T-shirt.
ABC play-by-play broadcaster Dave Pasch revealed that Mahomes told himself and colleague and analyst Hubie Brown that the Chiefs quarterback thinks Dort could play in the NFL if he wanted to.
“Pat, unsolicited, just turned to Hubie and I and said Lu Dort could play in the NFL,” Pasch said.
“I don’t know if he was kidding or serious, but he said he could play linebacker, or running back.”
Mahomes’ remark came as the sports world has recently debated whether NBA players can also play in the NFL.
Still, fans were enamored with Mahomes and the jewelry he wore at the game.

“That necklace is blinding,” one wrote.
“I have never in my life seen black diamonds dancing before. Patrick Mahomes really got money money,” another commented.
“Those black diamonds are dangerous,” a third stated.
Mahomes gave kudos to Dort’s athletic play as well as his physicality.

The latter ability was on display as the 25-year-old picked up six personal fouls that led to him being fouled out late in the fourth quarter.
Mahomes and his jewelry seemed to be the lucky charms for the Mavericks who beat the Thunder in Game 3.
Patrick is a Dallas sports fan as the six-time Pro Bowler is a Texas native.
Mahomes and his wife Brittany could make another appearance for Game 4 in Dallas on Monday night.
The Thunder will try to even the series 2-2.
