The NBA?s best passers, best shooters, and best dunkers put their skills on display on NBA All-Star Saturday Night. Place prop bets on the Sprite Slam Dunk contest, the Foot Locker Three-Point Shootout, the Playstation Skills Challenge or even the anticipated race between Charles Barkley and Dick Bavetta.
NBA ALL-STAR SATURDAY NIGHT - Satuday, Feb. 16 at 8:00p.m. ET on TNT
All Star Foot Race ft. Charles Barkley +200 and Dick Bavetta -300
t all started with outlandish comments from Charles Barkley about 67-year-old NBA referee Dick Bavetta: "I?ll donate $10,000 if Dick Bavetta can outrun me end-to-end [of a basketball court].There?s no 67-year-old in the whole world - not just NBA officials - that can outrun me." So can Charles do it? Can an overweight former superstar outrun an in-shape-but-over-sixty referee? The odds (and the physical fitness) is definately in Bavetta?s favor.
Playstation Skills Challenge
Dwyane Wade +200
Kobe Bryant +240
LeBron James +315
Chris Paul +230
Dwayne Wade is the favorite for a reason. LeBron James blazed through the Playstation skills challenge that tests speed, shooting and passing abilities last year and was still beaten out by the speedy guard from the Heat. The only challenge to Wade this year seems to be Hornets guard Chris Paul. He?s the only true point guard in the group, and his tendency to garner more assists during the regular season should help him on the course.
Foot Locker Three-Point Shootout
Dirk Nowitzki +260
Gilbert Arenas +300
Damon Jones +310
Jason Kapono +200
Mike Miller +550
Jason Terry +600
Dirk Nowitzki should once again be on everyone?s radar to repeat as shootout champ. The German baller is deadly from three-point land and proved his delivery was quick enough the clear every ball on the rack. Buyers should beware of Jason Kapono however, the Heat forward leads the NBA in three-point percentage and could pull off the upset.
Sprite Rising Stars Slam Dunk Contest
Nate Robinson +250
Gerald Green EVEN
Dwight Howard +500
Tyrus Thomas +300
Although Nate Robinson will be defending his slam dunk title, Gerald Green seems like a shoe-in to take home the crown of baddest dunker on the planet. Robinson seemingly used up every trick to win last year?s competition and Dwight Howard and Tyrus Thomas are too tall for a competition that favors player 6′8 or less.
NBA All-Star Weekend is headed to Las Vegas, and the Bodog Sportsbook is making sure you can bet on all the action. From the NBA?s dunk contest on Saturday to the battle between East and West on Sunday, all the NBA All-Star odds are available in the sportsbook!
