The 2024 NBA All-Star weekend kicked off Friday night with the Celebrity Game at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. ESPN's "First Take" hosts Shannon Sharpe and Stephen A. Smith coached squads featuring actors, athletes, musicians, content creators, and even an Olympian in high-jump champion Gianmarco Tamberi.
But one of the biggest draws of the Celebrity Game isn't the players. It's the debut of the LED court.
The court, developed by the German company ASB GlassFloor, included design and color changes, location-based player tracking animations, and countdowns for extra point periods.

It's the first time a fully LED court's been used for an NBA event and basketball fans took to social media to comment on it. Some of them enjoyed the unique look.
Others weren't quite so sold on it.
The LED court will be a key part of NBA All-Star weekend. Saturday night's Skills Challenge, 3-Point Contest, Stephen vs. Sabrina shooting contest, and Slam Dunk Contest will all use it.
After four quarters, Team Shannon won against Team Stephen A. 100-91. Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl linebacker Micah Parsons won Celebrity Game MVP honors with 37 points, 16 rebounds, and four steals.
