Clippers owner Steve Ballmer loves old-school rap (no team books more of those artists for halftime entertainment), so he is going to love All-Star Saturday Night in the Intuit Dome he built.
Iconic three-time Grammy winner Ludacris will take center court during NBA All-Star Saturday night on Feb. 14 and rock the Intuit Dome ahead of the Slam Dunk Contest. That is just one of the highlights of the musical entertainment during All-Star weekend. Some of the other highlights include:
• A historic live performance of “Roundball Rock” by John Tesh will open the 75th NBA All-Star Game on NBC and Peacock.
• Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and actress Brandy will perform the U.S. national anthem before the All-Star Game on Feb. 15.
• Grammy-winning singer and songwriter Sarah McLachlan will sing the Canadian national anthem before the All-Star Game.
• genre-defying star Shaboozey and K-Pop sensation CORTIS will perform throughout the weekend as part of the NBA Crossover Concert Series, taking place Feb. 12-15 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
• Aiden Ross, winner of NBC’s “The Voice” Season 28, will perform the U.S. national anthem, and Toronto native Chxrry will perform the Canadian national anthem before the tip-off of the Rising Stars games on Friday, Feb. 13.
• CORTIS also will perform at halftime of the All-Star Celebrity Game on Friday, Feb. 13, airing exclusively on ESPN.
• Singer and actress Chlöe Bailey will perform the U.S. national anthem and “Lift Every Voice and Sing” before the NBA HBCU Classic on Friday, Feb. 13.
