Jordan Rising Stars Tournament - Friday 9PM EST

Support Raptors sophomore Scottie Barnes as he makes his second Rising Stars appearance Friday Night! Last week, Scottie was drafted to Team Pau, and will compete against three other teams in the tournament.

Joining Scottie are other NBA rookies and sophomores, as well as standouts from the G-League. Team Pau will feature Barnes, Jose Alvarado, Paolo Banchero, Jaden Ivey, Keegan Murray, as well as Canadians Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard.

The teams will compete in a three-game mini tournament that will showcase the next generation of NBA talent. This is Scottie Barnes second appearance after being selected to play in his rookie year — later winning Rookie of the Year honours.

All-Star Saturday Night - Saturday 8PM EST

Saturday Night will showcase the Kia Skills Challenge, the Starry 3-Point Contest, and the AT&T Slam Dunk Contest.

Though there are no Raptors competing in any of these events, they will still be full of excitement! As NBA Talent grows and the league becomes more and more skilled, these events are always ones you don’t want to miss.

All-Star Draft and Game - Sunday starting at 7:30 PM EST

This year for the first time, the NBA All-Star draft will be going down just before the game tips off! That means we do not know if Pascal Siakam will be playing for Team Giannis or Team LeBron just yet.

Pascal Siakam was chosen by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to be an injury replacement in the game, after Steph Curry, Zion Williamson and Kevin Durant all pulled out of the game due to injury. He will be drafted from the reserves.

After the draft, the teams will tip-off for the 72nd NBA All Star Game!

There’s tons of betting to be done all weekend long! From picks for the Dunk Contest, Skills Competition, 3-Point Contest, and even the game itself!
