<p>The NBA All-Star weekend is just around the corner and Salt Lake City in Utah is all set for the event, beginning on February 17. The fans are eager to get their dose of action-packed jumping, dunking, dribbling, passing, three-pointers and some hooping. The marquee Saturday night is what everyone looks forward to each year and it is no different this time as well. The much-hyped Slam Dunk is&nbsp;without some of the big names but the participants who are reportedly selected for this year's event are some of the highest jumpers the game has today. The 3-Point contest, on the other hand, will feature All-Stars Jayson Tatum, Damian Lillard and Tyrese Haliburton.</p>

<h2>Here are the details and complete schedule of All-Star events along with line-ups:</h2>

<h3>2023 NBA Slam Dunk Contest</h3>

<p>The contest will see four players participating in two rounds. Each player will get two chances to dunk in the first round and the two players with the highest combined scores for their two dunks will move into the second and the final round. The finalists will get two more dunks and the one with more combined score&nbsp;will be declared the winner. Here's the list of players for the Slam Dunk contest:&nbsp;</p>

<h3>2023 NBA 3-Point Contest</h3>

<p>There will be eight players challenging each other by shooting from the standard positions on the court with four racks of four regular balls and one money ball along with a special rack of five money balls. As always, the regular balls will have one point and the money ball will offer two points. The players, however, can choose their favourite spot for shooting from the money ball rack.&nbsp;</p>

<p>There will also be two 'Starry Zones' that will be six feet behind the standard 3-point line. Each zone will hold one money ball offering three points. The addition of these zones means that the maximum score a player can achieve is 40 instead of 34. The NBA has also increased the time limit from 60 seconds to 70 seconds.</p>
