Kimmel announced the specific details of their matchup on ABC13 Monday night.
The event is being called Blobfish Basketball Classic.
This all stems from when Kimmel said Cruz looked like a blobfish during Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals with the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors.
Cruz responded to the jab by challenging Kimmel on the court.
Doors for the game open at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at the Health and Physical Education Arena on the TSU campus.

They're playing for two charities. Kimmel's charity is Texas Children's Hospital and Cruz's is third-ward based early childhood education group Generation One.
Tickets are free, but you need to request them online.
You're also encouraged to donate to the charities.
