The Staples Center in Los Angeles will host today (7:00 pm via ESPN) the most anticipated showdown for basketball fans. That's right, we're talking about the spectacular All Star Game, starring the most important stars of the NBA.
Unlike previous editions, this year the players will not be separated by conferences (East and West). This time, two teams were formed that will be led by the biggest stars of today: LeBron James of the Cavaliers and Stephen Curry of the Warriors.
It is worth mentioning that this is not the only novelty for this year. In order to add excitement to the game, the NBA also decided to increase the prize money. That is why the winners will receive a prize of US$100,000 each.
