LeBron, Giannis, Steph Curry, Nikola Jokić and… Machine Gun Kelly are all in action for the 2022 NBA All-Star Weekend. While the NBA All-Star Game itself is the main event, there is so much more besides to watch, including the Skills Challenge, the 3-Point Contest, the Slam Dunk Contest and the Celebrity Game. Read on as we explain how to watch a 2022 NBA All-Star Weekend live stream online wherever you are – including the full schedule of events.
It’s a Friday to Sunday affair in Cleveland, where Team LeBron will be not-so-quietly confident of a fifth straight victory in the All-Star Game. As has become traditional, Kevin Durant has been ruled out through injury, while King James has managed to amass a roster so talented it’s not even fair.
Giannis is also teaming up with his brothers Thanasis Antetokounmpo and Alex Antetokounmpo for the Skills Challenge, Trae Young is the pre-competition favorite for the 3-Point Contest, while Cole Anthony, Jalen Green, Obi Toppin and Juan Toscano-Anderson will be looking to shatter the backboard in the must-watch NBA Slam Dunk Contest 2022.
Keep an eye out for future ballers in the Rising Stars Game and the NBA G League Next Gem Game, and for, well, the sublime and the stupid in the Celebrity Game, starring Olympic high jump champion Gianmarco Tamberi!

NBA All-Star Saturday Night 2022
Of course, it’s not just about the All-Star Game. One of the main attractions of the weekend is All-Star Saturday Night, which tips off at 8pm ET / 7pm CT / 5pm PT on Saturday, February 19.
As ever, it will encompass three events: the Skills Challenge, the 3-Point Contest, and the Slam Dunk Contest.
The Skills Challenge is the first event, and pits three teams of three players against each other in a three-round competition that tests their shooting, passing and dribbling. The top two teams then face off in a half-court shot showdown.
Next is the 3-Point Contest, a two-round, timed shooting competition between eight all-stars. It’s 70 seconds of mayhem for every contender, who has to rack up as many points as possible from a multitude of pre-determined shooting locations – and don’t forget about those money balls.
Closing the night we have the big one, the Slam Dunk Contest, a two-round competition that will see a panel of judges rate every dunk on a scale of 6 to 10, with Cole Anthony, Jalen Green, Obi Toppin and Juan Toscano-Anderson in the spotlight and looking to impress with some outrageous aerial maneuvers.
