NBA All-Star Game 2023: How to Watch, Stream Today Without Cable – CNET

It’s been a busy February in the NBA, with LeBron James passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer followed by a dizzying number of deals made at the league’s trade deadline. Now, the NBA is taking a well-deserved break for All-Star weekend, taking place in Salt Lake City. The Slam Dunk Contest ended last night with Sixers’ backup Mac McClung stealing the show after Blazers’ star Damian Lillard won the 3-point contest.

Today is the main event. The NBA All-Star Game pits the 24 best players in the league against one another in an exhibition between the Eastern and Western Conferences. Here’s what you need to know to watch.
