We Made a Mixtape of Your Favorite NBA Players’ Guilty Pleasures

One NBA center can’t get enough of ‘Frozen.’

Imagine any stadium or locker room shortly before game time, and you can almost taste the thumping bass getting players and fans alike pumped up for the upcoming game. Sometimes, inspirational jams are all you need to get in the zone, even when your favorite pump-up jam is an unconventional one — which, according to the NBA, almost every player has.

With the NBA’s 2015-2016 season kicking off Tuesday night, we decided to pull together a playlist of your favorite players’ guilty musical pleasures, provided to us by the NBA. Plug in your headphones and prepare to be amazed.
