The festivities commenced with NBA Crossover, where thousands of fans gathered to immerse themselves in a basketball wonderland. From shooting hoops to participating in various games, the atmosphere was electric.
As the event unfolded, legendary basketball player Reggie Miller shared his excitement about returning to Indianapolis to call the All-Star Game for TNT. Miller, who spent 18 years with the Indiana Pacers, expressed his admiration for the city's ability to host such grand basketball events. He eagerly anticipated being back in his adopted home, surrounded by loved ones and witnessing the world's best players showcase their skills.
One of the most highly anticipated events of the weekend is the three-point contest featuring reigning NBA shooting champion Steph Curry and WNBA standout Sabrina Ionescu. The matchup has drawn comparisons to the famous 'Battle of the Sexes' tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs in the 1970s. Both Curry and Ionescu are renowned for their shooting prowess, making it a difficult choice for fans to predict the winner. Miller acknowledged Ionescu as arguably the best shooter in the WNBA, but ultimately sided with Curry due to his exceptional form in recent games.
Adding to the excitement, the three-point contest and dunk contest will take place on a remarkable LED basketball court, a first-of-its-kind spectacle.
