BURBANK, Calif. - May 10, 2018 - Nickelodeon has tapped Chris Paul, Houston Rockets' point guard and former NBA All-Star MVP, to host Kids' Choice Sports 2018, the only show where kids celebrate their favorite athletes and the year's most unforgettable sports moments in a superstar sports showdown. Airing Sunday, July 22, at 8:00 p.m. (ET/PT), Kids' Choice Sports 2018 will be taped live on Thursday, July 19, from Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif.
Said Chris Paul, "I grew up on Nickelodeon and now love watching it with my kids, and I can't wait to share this experience with them. I am honored that Nickelodeon asked me to host this year's Kids' Choice Sports awards. I promise to bring the fun, the slime and the most epic stunts in Kids' Choice Sports history."
Since its inception in 2014, Kids' Choice Sports has garnered some of the biggest names in sports from hosts Michael Strahan and Russell Wilson to Legend Award recipients David Beckham, Kobe Bryant, Derek Jeter and Michael Phelps.

The slime-soaked celebration has also featured one-of-a-kind challenges with top athletes from across the world of sports: U.S. Women's National Soccer Team champions Carli Lloyd and Abby Wambach sped through the finish line first against Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green and Klay Thompson during a tricycle relay race (2015); DeAndre Jordan (Los Angeles Clippers) and Andre Drummond (Detroit Pistons) scaled Slime Mountain, battled obstacles and slid their way to victory (2017); and Golden State teammates Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson faced off in the Big Slime Ballers Challenge, a three-point contest where each shot triggered slime-filled nets above kid-rebounders (2016).
