The Rising Stars Challenge is a basketball exhibition game held by the National Basketball Association (NBA) on the Friday before the annual All-Star Game as part of the All-Star Weekend. Being sponsored by Air Jordan, the event is also known as Jordan Rising Stars. The current format used since 2022 includes rookie and sophomore NBA players and NBA G League Ignite players selected by the NBA's assistant coaches and league office. Former NBA players, designated as "honorary coaches", draft players for their respective teams, where they play in a single-elimination tournament to reach a Final Target Score in each game.
