The NBA is set to enter its annual break for the All-Star Game and its surrounding games and activities with the 2023 edition of the event set to take place in Salt Lake City.
The NBA All-Star Weekend - which marks the 30th anniversary of the first NBA All-Star Game hosted by the Utah Jazz back in 1993 - begins on Friday with the celebrity game and the Rising Star Challenge, which will feature 2022 NBA Draft first pick Paolo Banchero as well as Brit-Pole Jeremy Sochan. NBA All-Star Saturday will feature the skills challenge, three-point contest and slam dunk contest.
While fans will tune into the likes of Jayson Tatum and Damian Lillard competing in the three-point contest, the main event is on Sunday 19 February. The All-Star Game will see Team LeBron take on Team Giannis after Los Angeles Lakers icon - and NBA all-time scorer - LeBron James and Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo were voted as captains.
