NBA All-Star Weekend kicked off on Friday night with the Celebrity Game and Rising Stars Challenge, but now the real fun begins as All-Star Saturday Night is upon us. The showcase features three events: the Skills Challenge, 3-Point Contest and Dunk Contest.
The first event of the night was the Skills Challenge, and it ended in stunning fashion as Jayson Tatum threw in a half-court shot to beat Trae Young. Next, the 3-Point Contest took center stage. Steph Curry put on a show in the first round, but the Brooklyn Nets' Joe Harris went home with the trophy, beating Curry by two points in the championship round. Finally, the Slam Dunk Contest will be the main event of the evening as Dennis Smith Jr., Miles Bridges, John Collins and Hamidou Diallo do battle for the right to be named the NBA's dunk king.

To close out the weekend, we'll get the actual All-Star Game itself on Sunday night at the Spectrum Center. This is the second year of the new format, which features two rosters led by captains instead of the traditional East vs. West matchup. LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers and Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks are the two captains this season, and they recently completed their playground-style draft, which was televised this year. The first player selected for Team LeBron was Kevin Durant, while the first pick for Team Giannis was Steph Curry. For a full list of rosters, go here:
