NBA Skills Challenge 2025 lineup: Players, teams, format and rules
It's time to watch some of the biggest names in the NBA show off their passing, dribbling and shooting in San Francisco.
That's right, it's the 2025 Skills Competition, which features four teams of two players each competing for the title. As longs as the rules are the same, they'll have three rounds filled with obstacles to dribble around, targets to pass through and spots on the floor to shoot on. It's the first of the events on a packed NBA All-Star Saturday schedule.
It should be a good time! If you're looking for the participants, rules, format and tiebreaker? You've come to the right place. Here's a breakdown of all of that below:
