NBA All-Star Weekend
2010 All-Star Weekend | Feb. 12-14, 2010
 2010 NBA All-Star weekend is in Dallas, Texas. A twist this year is that instead of the main All-Star weekend events taking place in a basketball arena, they'll be in a football stadium: the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

East Forwards: LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce, Gerald Wallace

West Guards: Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash, Chris Paul, Brandon Roy, Deron Williams
West Forwards: Carmelo Anthony, Tim Duncan, Kevin Durant, Pau Gasol, Dirk Nowitzki, Zach Randolph

On Friday, February 12, NBA All-Star weekend events include the Rookie Challenge Game, featuring this year's best rookies against this year's best sophomores (second-year players).
On Saturday, February 13, NBA All-Star weekend events include the Shooting Stars competition (won by Detroit in 2009), the Skills Challenge (won last year by Derrick Rose), the Three-point shootout (last year's champ was Daequan Cook) and the Slam Dunk contest (won by Nate Robinson).
And Sunday, February 14 features the All-Star weekend's main event, the NBA All-Star game. The starters for the big game were announced on Thursday, January 21. They are Dwyane Wade, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett and Dwight Howard for the East, and Steve Nash, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Tim Duncan and Amar'e Stoudemire for the West.
