The All-Star game was held in Charlotte, North Carolina, home of the Hornets, and Team LeBron took the win 178-164 against Team Giannis.
Kevin Durant won his second All-Star game MVP award as part of Team Lebron. He scored a team high 31 points in part of Team Lebron 20-point comeback over Team Giannis.
Teams were chosen in a draft format weeks prior to the All-Star game by team captains Lebron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo, who led All-Star fan voting for the Eastern and Western Conferences.
Of the notable plays from the game, Steph Curry initiated an alley-oop slam to Giannis with a 14-foot bounce pass that rocked all of Charlotte. Dwyane Wade and Lebron recreated their famous dunk from the Big 3 era that was also captured in a photo.
Overall, the NBA All-Star game was pretty lit. From the Skills Contest to the 3-Point Contest to the Dunk Contest to the All-Star game itself, the weekend for the NBA was a huge success on social media. Next year’s All-Star game will be played in Chicago and many are speculating that some of the teammates in this All-Star game will end up being teammates in the regular season.
