He’s always up for a challenge, and last night (February 8) Will Ferrell stepped into the role of announcer at the New Orleans Hornets vs. Chicago Bulls basketball game.

The “Anchorman” star looked to be thoroughly enjoying himself as he named off the visiting Chicago Bulls starting lineup along with ad-libbed descriptions of each player.

For example, Will declared, “At forward, No. 5, he still lives with his mother … Carlos Boozer,” and, “And at guard, No. 1, his favorite movie is “The Notebook” … Derrick Rose.”

However, it seems Will’s antics didn’t do the Hornets any favors- they lost to the Bulls with a final score of 90-67.
