The NBA’s showcase event has landed in Southern California, with festivities running through Sunday across the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
The 75th NBA All-Star Game tips off Sunday night at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, marking the league’s seventh visit to the greater L.A. region. This year’s main event features a new twist: two teams of U.S. players and one World squad will compete in a round-robin format of four 12-minute games. Each roster includes at least eight players, and the two teams with the best records will meet in a championship matchup.
