None of them have a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, but University of Wisconsin men’s basketball players sure have been living the high life on the Golden Coast.

It all started Tuesday afternoon when senior forward Frank Kaminsky met actors Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly for a segment on “Access Hollywood.”

Then, “Entourage” creator and writer Doug Ellin and actor Jerry Ferrara stopped by Wisconsin’s practice.

The team is also using the Los Angeles Lakers locker room at the Staples Center. Sophomore forward Nigel Hayes looked, um, excited to use Kobe Bryant’s locker.

Kobe loved it.

It hasn’t been all fun and games for the Badgers, though. The team’s Twitter account posted that the team had a combined 22 exams to take while on the road.

The Big Ten also announced its winter academic all-Big Ten honorees. Fifth-year senior forward Duje Dukan, sophomore forwards Vitto Brown and Nigel Hayes and redshirt freshman Aaron Moesch were on that list.
