Israeli Basketball All-Star Game

The Israeli Basketball All-Star Game is an annual basketball event in Israel. The event was first played in the 1990s and it returned in the 2010-11 season after a lengthy hiatus.[1] The All-Star Game includes a match between a selection of the best players of the Israeli League, a slam-dunk and a three-point contest. The rosters for the All-Star Game are chosen by an online voting, with fans choosing one international player and one local player from each team. It is organized by the Israeli Basketball Premier League.
