The first event of NBA All-Star Saturday Night has plenty of star power, including a sharp-shooting father-son duo.

As it has every since the competition began in 2004, each squad includes one NBA All-Star, a WNBA player and an NBA legend. The challenge pits the teams against each other to see who can make four shots in the fastest time from incrementally farther distances. Each player from all four teams will get a turn. The two teams with the best times will face off in the championship round, where the same format will determine the winner.
Though they didn’t win last year, Stephen Curry will once again be joined by his father, Dell Curry. Team Bosh, which features legend Dominique Wilkins and Swin Cash, will try to repeat after winning the title in 2014.
Teams
Team Bosh: Chris Bosh (Miami Heat), Dominique Wilkins (Legend), Swin Cash (New York Liberty)

Team Davis*: Anthony Davis (New Orleans Pelicans), Scottie Pippen (Legend), Elena Delle Donne (Chicago Sky)
