This All-Star Weekend should be an exciting one, all ending with the All-Star Game 7 p.m. Sunday on TNT.

NBA All-Star Weekend starts tomorrow, bringing the world one of the most exciting weekends in sports with the All-Star Game as the ultimate grand finale. It will be Team Durant vs. Team Lebron for the second straight year. 

The NBA’s biggest stars will play against each year in this format for the third straight year as Team Lebron has yet to be defeated, beating Team Giannis in 2020 and Team Durant last year. 

Team Lebron starters will be Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Jokic, Stephen Curry, Demar Derozan and Lebron James himself. Team Durant starters will be Joel Embiid, Ja Morant, Jason Tatum, Andrew Wiggins, and Trae Young. Durant would start as well but will sit out due to an MCL injury he is still recovering from.

This format has brought new life to the All-Star Game that was much needed after being seen as pointless and boring only a few years ago. This new format is so special because the MVP of the All-Star Game gets the Kobe Bryant trophy to pay tribute to the late Kobe Bryant. This All-Star Weekend should be an exciting one, all ending with the All-Star Game 7 p.m. Sunday on TNT.
