Here’s the 2018 NBA All-Star Weekend Schedule

With the rest of the league off until February 22nd (and the Raptors playing again on the 23rd), it’s time to enjoy the fun of NBA All-Star Weekend. Now that two thirds of the season are behind us, let’s just relax into some silly basketball.

Here’s the full 2018 NBA All-Star schedule for the weekend:

Keep an eye open for the Raptors’ Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan throughout the weekend. The former will be participating in the JBL Three-Point Contest (and hoping for a better result than the last couple of times he’s been in it — and no wrist surgery please!).

And of course both Lowry and DeRozan will be playing in the big game as part of Team Curry. In a delightful twist: Dwane Casey and his staff will head-up Team LeBron, their competition.

It’ll be fun, I’m sure. And we’ll have more coverage for you as the weekend progresses.
