NBA All-Star Weekend is in full swing, and All-Star Saturday Night is arguably more anticipated each year than the actually game itself. This year’s version was no exception. Here’s a quick round-up off all the events that took place in Salt Lake City.
Skills Challenge
The Skills Challenge featured three teams of three players each taking part in a relay, passing, and shooting competition. Team Rooks—featuring Paolo Banchero, Jabari Smith Jr., and Jayden Ivey—dominated the team relay portion. While the relay has historically featured a less-than-stellar effort, Team Jazz’ Jordan Clarkson turned-in an all-time performance, sauntering through the course with the sense of urgency of a sloth getting out of bed.
