Due to the League’s recently announced revamped competition, the Skills Challenge will host teams of three players competing against one another instead of individuals duking it out.
The Taco Bell Skills Challenge will kick off Saturday night’s All-Star festivities on February 19th, followed by the 3-Point Contest and the Slam Dunk Contest.
The participants for the 2022 Skills Challenge have yet to be announced.
