The NBA is bringing back the Shooting Stars contest for All-Star Saturday night. Four three-player teams shoot through timed stations at Intuit Dome, home of the Los Angeles Clippers. The format replaces the skills competition this year. Teams include a Knicks group led by Allan Houston and a Harper family team with Ron Harper Sr. and his sons. The slam dunk contest will have a new champion because three-time winner Mac McClung is skipping it. The 3-point contest features past winners Damian Lillard and Devin Booker, as well as Donovan Mitchell and rookie Kon Knueppel. Tyler Herro and Stephen Curry are sitting out.
