NBA Betting Odds
Western All Stars -6
Total: 353.5 points
Yes, 353.5 points seems like a ton for an exhibition game, but in a game where no defense is played and the best players in the world are on the floor, it's certainly attainable. Glenn Robinson III won the dunk contest last night, the East squad won the Celebrity Game 88-59, Team World won the Rising Stars Challenge 150-141, Kristaps Porzingis won the Skills Challenge and Eric Gordon claimed the 3-point contest. It was a great way to kick off the All-Star weekend and now the main event takes place tonight.

There will obviously be a ton of points here as we have an excellent group of starters tonight. The Curry-Harden-Durant-Leonard-Davis combination should be fun to watch. The East countering with Irving-DeRozan-James-Butler and Antetokounmpo should make for an interesting game.
This will be the 66th edition of the All-Star game. Marv Albert, Reggie Miller and Chris Webber will be making the call live on TNT. The game was moved to New Orleans following the controversial issues in North Carolina stemming from the "bathroom bill." The 2017 All-Star Game was the first major sporting event in the country relocated for a political reason dating back to 1990 when Super Bowl XXVII was moved from Arizona because the state didn't recognize Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
