The "Clippers" of the celebrity game have some great Canadian content, Andre De Grasse is a sub-10s 100 m sprinter and Win Butler has won MVP of the celebrity game a couple of times.

I don't think Embiid will play many minutes since he has events on all 3 days. Plus, he is recovering from ankle soreness.
Have the starting line-ups been named?

Super excited - its my 18 anniversary of watching the all star weekend with friends and family. Going to be a blast! Hoping for an exciting rookie game with Team World winning. Got Jamal, Lowry and DSJ winning the skills (we should have one more event) and team steph in the all star game

Chuck never afraid to call out Shaq on anything. This was great. Chuck probably wishes he had a Kobe on his Suns teams - he might have been able to beat MJ/Hakeem.
