This year, the NBA All-Star Skills Challenge lineup will feature three No. 1 drafts from their respective seasons.

According to Shams Chanaria, Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards, Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero, and San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama will participate in the Skills Challenge.

Anthony Edwards was the No. 1 pick of the 2020 NBA Draft, while Banchero was selected No. 1 in the 2022 Draft. Wembanyama, with much media clout, was picked No. 1 last summer.
