2020 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game Preview

Chicago will host this year’s events after last year’s festivities were held in Charlotte, North Carolina, so this game will feature several natives of the Windy City.

Journalist, Chicago sports fan and ESPN host Michael Wilbon will coach the home team in this one. Grey’s Anatomy actor Jesse Williams will be the team’s assistant coach. They will be led by rapper Common, who has been known to possess more than a few basketball skills.

He will be joined by singer Bad Bunny, comedian Hannibal Buress, singer Kane Brown, musician Jon Batiste, actor Alex Moffat, celebrity chef Jose Andres, WNBA star Chelsea Gray, singer-songwriter Jidenna, former NBA star Quentin Richardson, and comedian and social media influencer Famous Los, who won the MVP award in this game last year.

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith will coach the away team, and rap star Chance the Rapper will serve as team captain. They will be joined by WNBA star A’ja Wilson, rapper and 2018 MVP Quavo, rapper Taylor Bennett, actor LaRoyce Hawkins, comedian and former NFL player Anthony “Spice” Adams, co-owner of the Milwaukee Bucks Marc Lasry, marketing director Ronnie 2, gymnast Katelyn Ohashi, actor and comedian Lil Rel Howery and former NBA star Darius Miles. Celebrity chef, restaurateur, and TV personality Guy Fieri will be the assistant coach.

Last year’s Celebrity All-Star game was won by the home team by a score of 82-80, which was the highest-scoring game since its inception in 2003. Quavo scored a game-high 27 points in a losing effort, while Famous Los’ 22 points helped his team win while earning himself MVP honors.

Legendary recording artist Chaka Khan will sing the American national anthem, and Tenille Arts will sing the Canadian national anthem. Chance the Rapper will also perform during halftime and will be joined by Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled, and Quavo.
