Tonight is the NBA All-Star Game, which will be conducted at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The match is scheduled to commence at 5:00 pm PT, and TNT and TBS will provide the broadcast.
Tonight’s game will feature LeBron James and Anthony Davis representing the Los Angeles Lakers, so be sure to tune in to show your support. James is scheduled to start for the team in the Western Conference. His 20th appearance on the All-Star team ties him with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the all-time leader of the Lakers.
Alongside Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, he has been re-elected team captain.
“I give credit and a lot of respect to my fans who have been along with me through this whole 21-year journey,” James declared. “I am truly humbled that you have voted me in for the 20th consecutive year as an All-Star starter. Extremely fortunate to be able to pursue my passion and simply attempt to repay the game that has provided me with so much for the past two decades.”

Both Lakers players will have an opportunity to demonstrate why they were voted into the lineup, and ideally there will be no injuries. James may not log a significant number of minutes due to the numerous minor injuries he has sustained this season.
The motivation to begin the second half of the season on a positive note commences once the game concludes. The Lakers travel to Northern California to face the rival Golden State Warriors to begin the second half.
