The Lakers superstar LeBron James will be facing the new face of the NBA, Giannis, in the All-Star game, a match of the same caliber as the WC final between Messi & Mbappe

The NBA regular season will be stopped for the All-Star weekend; it is the one time in the year when the league's best stars get to shine and have an epic game between the best of the best.

This year, two of the best NBA players will be leading their respective teams to an epic spectacle, similar to what happened in 2022 in the World Cup between the game of Argentina vs. France with the superstars Messi and Mbappe.

The Lakers superstar LeBron James will lead the West team vs. the East team led by Giannis Antetokounmpo. But the All-Star weekend overall is set to have revenue for the Salt Lakers in Utah of about 250 million, which is massive.

But soccer being a more international sport and having stars of all the world, was able to make some great money; the whole World Cup event had revenue for Qatar of about 7 billion, and it has been revealed that the finals got to amass something between the 500 to 600 million.

The Messi vs. Cristiano in Saudi Arabia also made a lot of banks for the Middle East

In an attempt to get some of that superstar money, and now that Cristiano Ronaldo has signed with the Al-Nassr, the Saudi Arabian made a game between the PSG and the All-Star Riyadh. It made a lot of banks that haven't officially announced how much, but it is approximately made around 50 million in revenue.
