Last season’s All-Star Game ended up being the highest-ever scoring All-Star game in the NBA with 369 points – the West won 196-173. Both West and East surpassed the team record of 163 that was set in 2015 by the West.

With players taking no risks to push themselves to the limit, a similar game can be expected on Sunday night too. The defensive work in last season’s game was nil as both teams only focused on the offense. It remains to be seen how Steve Kerr (West Head Coach) and Brad Stevens (East Head Coach) set their teams up. Maybe, this season we will be able to see one of the teams crossing the 200-mark!
