Los Angeles Lakers' superstar Kobe Bryant and New Orleans Hornets' star playmaker Chris Paul will lead a group of NBA players who will parade their wares in Manila for a series of exhibition games on July 23 and 24 at the Araneta Coliseum in Manila.
This was announced by Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) team Talk N' Text head coach Chot Reyes, one of the people behind the negotiations of the hoops event, on his Twitter account Friday morning.
Also on Reyes' Twitter post, Sacramento Kings' Tyreke Evans, LA Clippers' DeAndre Jordan, Oklahoma City Thunder's James Harden, Minnesota Timberwolves' Derrick Williams and two others will also be joining in what has been dubbed as the Smart Ultimate All-Star Weekend.
The NBA All-Stars will take on Smart Gilas Pilipinas, the national basketball team, and a PBA-select squad.
