Will Ferrell Slams Cheerleader's Face with Basketball

And you can hear the shock and awe of the crowd at Wednesday night’s New Orleans Pelicans game - in which the team formerly known as the Hornets took on the LA Lakers - as Will Ferrell hits the target with a basketball to the chops.

The crowd was treated to the slam dunk at half time, and thankfully it’s all for the movies (though it does look like it probably really hurt).

Ferrell took to the court for the sequence, which was being filmed for his new movie ‘Daddy’s Home’.
