The NBA All-Star Weekend is in full force as the league's biggest stars meet in Cleveland. The Rising Stars Challenge was one of the new formats that took place this year. The 3-point contest, slam dunk contest and skills challenge are the three events that headline Saturday. There is a new look to the Skills Challenge. Three teams of three players will compete in a four-round competition that tests their shooting, passing and dribbling skills. The Antetokounmpo brothers, Alex and Thanasis, make up one team. The second squad is comprised of a trio of Cleveland Cavaliers. The third group will include Scottie Barnes, Josh Giddey and Cade Cunningham. The most experienced participants in the 3-point contest are Trae Young and LaVine. First-time participants are Patty Mills, Karl- Anthony Towns, Fred VanVleet, and Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Aupair Cole Anthony, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and Jalen Green are new to the dunk contest.
