How to watch NBA All-Star Game 2018: Live stream, start time, latest odds
The NBA All-Star Game is back Sunday night and it returns with a new format. Instead of the Eastern Conference versus the Western Conference, Team LeBron will face off against Team Stephen in Los Angeles. The league's most popular all-stars -- LeBron James and Stephen Curry -- picked a squad of five starters and seven reserves voted to the all-star game by fans and coaches.
The contest isn't known for its defensive highlights so there will be plenty of offensive highlights in a high-scoring game. Last year, the West defeated the East 192-182.
Speaking to reporters before the game, James said he was "honored and blessed" to participate in All-Star Weekend.
"It's a great and an amazing league, being able to play with so many great athletes and great players over this 14-year run and being a part of All-Star Sunday," James said. "I'll never take this moment for granted."
Prior to Sunday's star-studded conclusion to All-Star Weekend, Saturday featured a flashy dunk contest, a three-point shootout and skills challenge as Utah Jazz' Donavan Mitchell, Phoenix Suns' Devin Booker and Brooklyn Nets' Spender Dinwiddie won those contests, respectively. On Friday, Team World defeated Team USA in a high-scoring matchup 155-124 in the Rising Stars Challenge, filled with first and second year NBA players across the league.
