NBA official announcement! The 2020 All-Star Game welcomes major reforms, the final quarter goal score pays tribute to Kobe

is to turn each section into a mini-game for charity. Before the start of the second and third quarters, the score will return to 0-0. There is no time limit in the last quarter, and the team that reaches the target score first becomes the winner of the All-Star Game.

What is the target score? According to the official explanation, the score of the leading party in the first three quarters plus 24 points is the target score. For example, if the total score of the two sides in the first three quarters is 100-95, then the target score is 124 points. In the first three quarters, the leading side only needs 24 points to win, while the trailing side needs to get 29 points to win.

League Operations Manager Byron Spluer said: "We spent a lot of time considering the goal score in the fourth quarter, and in the end we decided that 24 was the most appropriate number." This is also the third consecutive year that the league has adopted the captain competition system. James and Antetokounmpo will choose their team next week. The first three quarters of

are separate mini-games, and the team that leads the score in each quarter will receive a charity fund of $100,000. The decisive link is in the fourth quarter. In this period of no time, the team that reaches the target score first becomes the final winner. The official

also stated that if the two sides drew in a single quarter, the bonus for this quarter will be rolled over to the next quarter. The final winner of the competition received a charity fund of 200,000 US dollars, so the total prize money for the entire event for charity is at least 500,000 US dollars. If one party wins all four quarters, they can only get 400,000 US dollars, and the remaining 100,000 US dollars will be given to the other side for charity activities.

Currently, this restructuring is only applicable to the 2020 All-Star Game. Splur said that if the restructuring is successful, this approach may be maintained in future All-Star games.
