All-Star Weekend brings together a lot of people who might not otherwise be in the same room. The NBA, its players, and fans revel in the spotlight of the host city, which rolls out the red carpet for the event. This year, it’s taking place in Chicago and the celebrities are already out in force.
Luka Doncic is making his second appearance at the mid-season event, this time as an All-Star starter. Friday afternoon, as he was at a charity event prior to the Rising Stars Challenge, Doncic had the encounter of a lifetime.
As he was sitting at a table with former Dallas Mavericks point guard Jason Kidd, former President Barack Obama walked over to greet him.
