The 72nd NBA All-Star Game kicked off at Salt Lake City, Utah, on Sunday with Team LeBron taking on Team Giannis. At the NBA All-Star Draft, captains LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo selected their teams ahead of the game.

Both jerseys feature a gradient pattern, one from red to yellow and the other from blue to black. The shorts, however, have the opposite gradient effect of the jerseys.

Both uniforms have white number. A white All-Star logo on the chest, as well as the Jordan Jumpman, who have made them for the past six years, and KIA logos on the shoulders.

“From the sky’s purple and blue tones in the evening to the red, burnt orange and yellow hues of the mountains and golden sunset, the colours and design pay homage to the landscapes of northern and southern Utah,” the NBA said about the jerseys.

“The five stars on the shorts are aligned in formation of Utah’s five national parks, revered around the world. The vertical stripe on the side of the jerseys is a nod to the Bonneville Salt Flats canals.”
