During the game, the Houston Rockets selected two audience members to compete in a timeout interactive challenge designed in collaboration with EVA Air to simulate a pre-boarding experience. The participant who completed the challenge in the shortest time was the sole winner and received a pair of round-trip premium economy tickets from Houston to the Philippines.
