How to Watch the 2020 NBA All-Star Game and Who’s Playing
All the information you need to watch the 2020 NBA all-star game.
It’s that time of the year again; the NBA all-star game will be on February 16th, 2020, at the United Center in Chicago. It is going to be the 3rd year where the captains of the teams will be participating in a fantasy draft to select their teams instead of the traditional East Coast vs. West Coast format.
There are plenty of questions that surround the game. Who will captains LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo select first in the draft? How many of the first-time All-star players will make the cut? Will Adam Silver, NBA commissioner, open up the spots the way he did in the previous season for Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade?
Here are some key dates you don’t want to miss if you want to stay in the loop:
