NBA Hall of Famer and legendary sharpshooter Ray Allen will join the festivities for the Away team. Allen was a two-time NBA Champion and 10-time All-Star during his 18-year playing career.
A couple of WNBA All-Stars will participate in the event, as Chicago Sky center Stefanie Dolson and 2018 Rookie of the Year A'ja Wilson will battle on opposing rosters.
Both sides will feature "Hometown Heroes" for the first time. Ex-marine Jason Weinmann will represent the Home team after helping victims of the North Carolina flooding last September during Hurricane Florence.
On the Away team is Nashville's James Shaw Jr., who successfully disarmed a gunman at a Waffle House in Tennessee last April.
