2022 Winner:
After a closed-door NBA All-Star Weekend last season in Atlanta, the league’s star-studded, three-day event will mark the return of fans back to the arena as it takes over the city of Cleveland.
The league will also be honoring the members of the 75th anniversary team that was announced earlier this season, and paying homage to some iconic moments throughout history as the NBA takes its annual break in the schedule.
The action kicks off Friday evening with the revamped Rising Stars Challenge, which will pit some of the league’s top rookies and sophomores in a round robin style tournament, with members of the 75th anniversary team serving as coaches.
Aaron Gordon:
After last year’s All-Star Weekend was abbreviated due to COVID, the league made sure to make up for lost time by bringing the old school All-Star Saturday back, but with a little twist.
The Skills Challenge changed from an individual award to a team contest. The hometown Cavaliers, led by Evan Mobley, won the Challenge after winning the shooting contest in the first round, and then hitting the winning half court shot in the final round to give the crowd at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse something to cheer about.
Who won slam 2022:
| Player | Dunk 1 | Dunk 2 | Total |
| Obi Toppin | 45 | 47 | 92 |
| Juan Toscano-Anderson | 39 | 30 | 69 |
10:57 p.m. – Toppin keeps it simple with the between-the-legs to earn a score of 47 to seal the win!
In the 3-Point contest there were a few extra shots added to the rounds. Sponsor Mountain Dew, added a couple shots from five feet behind the arc worth three points, and as a result we got some sky high scores.
