NBA All-Star Weekend has become a sports institution like no other. From the crazy dunks to the sometimes crazier celebs to the big game itself, it's three straight days of basketball bliss. And this year, there's only one place to catch it all: TNT.
Coverage kicked off last night, when TNT’s award-winning Inside the NBA studio show team of Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O'Neal brought fans an All-Star worthy doubleheader of Nets-Bulls and Lakers-Thunder. Tonight, the action continues with exclusive live coverage of the BBVA Compass Rising Stars Challenge, featuring the league's top young talents such as Michael Carter-Williams, Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard, and more.
On Saturday, it's time for what always turns out to be the weekend's most jaw-dropping event: the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest. Sir Charles and Shaq will break down the action, along with EJ, Chris Webber, Grant Hill, and more. Coverage begins at 5 p.m. EST, and also includes the Foot Locker Three-Point Contest.
Then, on Sunday, it's the big event itself, as sportscasting legend Marv Albert calls his 18th NBA All-Star Game, joined by analysts Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr. Coverage begins at 6:30 p.m. EST, as the NBA Style Team of Lance Fresh, Damaris Lewis, Rick Fox, and Reese Waters recap all the unique styles that were on display all weekend long.
