In this system, the seeding of each team is adjusted after every round based on the opponent they faced and on the result, with teams who pulled off an upset gaining...

Bulls’ Zach LaVine will participate in 3-Point Contest, per report


Bulls guard Zach LaVine didn’t get voted into the 2020 All-Star Game in Chicago, but he’s going to participate in the 3-Point Contest: https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1224480639409364998 As of right now, it looks like LaVine may not take part in the Slam Dunk Contest.

With the ICE Challenge only halfway through and BLAST Premier merely regarded as a...
