NBA All-Star Weekend 2024 as told by social media - ESPN

Now that the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis has concluded, the league will resume its regularly scheduled programming.

In the celebrity game, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons was named MVP after posting 37 points and grabbing 16 rebounds to lead Team Shannon to a 100-91 win over Team Stephen A.

After Team Pacers — consisting of Tyrese Haliburton, Myles Turner and Bennedict Mathurin — won the Skills Challenge, Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard defended his 3-point competition title with a clutch money ball shot to seal his victory.

On Sunday, the East All-Stars set a new record for the most points scored in an All-Star Game in a 211-186 win over the West, which prompted discussions about the level of competitiveness.

Here's how the weekend showcase of the league's best players unfolded as told by social media:

When announced he'd play in the Celebrity All-Star Game, online streamer Kai Cenat seemingly took the opportunity seriously. He promoted his progress leading up to the game with videos of him working on the fundamentals of basketball which led to a mixtape.

Just a week before the game, footage was posted of Cenat playing in an organized game with kids where he was shown trolling his young opponents with «too small» celebrations.

Cenat was locked in on the day of the game. He posted a teaser of a fan asking him to score thirty points followed by a LeBron James meme on his Instagram story.

He finished with four points.

During the MVP trophy presentation, Cenat looked a bit bummed the award wouldn't be going home with him, but quickly cheered on Parsons.

Following the game, Cenat issued an apology to his fans on Instagram.
