With the 2020 All-Star Game being held in Chicago, the weekend's musical acts are fittingly homegrown.

As the Chicago Tribune's DeAntae Prince first noted, Chance the Rapper announced on Thursday at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry that he will perform at halftime of this year's All-Star Game. The NBA later confirmed the news.

Another Chicago rapper, Common, will serve as the game's emcee and lead Sunday night's player introductions.

Taylor Bennett, Chance's younger brother, will perform at halftime of the 2020 NBA Rising Stars Game on Friday night.
