On Monday, it was revealed that Jalen Brunson, along with six other players including reigning champion Damian Lillard, will appear in this year’s mid-season event pending official confirmation of the full field of participants by the NBA at some point throughout the remainder of the week.
The NBA All-Star Weekend is slated for February 16-18 in Indianapolis and it will kick off with the Rising Stars game on Friday (no Knicks will take part in that game), followed by the usual skills competitions on Saturday featuring the Skills Challenge, the 3-Point Contest, the Slam Dunk Contest, and a new fresh 3-Point Duel pitting NBA’s Stephen Curry and WNBA’s Sabrina Ionescu against each other.
