The NBA's top players will be in Los Angeles for All-Star Weekend 2018. But before 24 of the league's best take the court on Sunday, the celebrity game and Rising Stars Challenge took center stage on Friday evening.

Team World, led by Rising Stars Challenge MVP Bogdan Bogdanovic, who scored 26 points (seven 3-pointers) and made six assists, defeated Team USA 155-124. Buddy Hield (29 points) and Jamal Murray (21 points) also helped lead Team World in its blowout victory. Jaylen Brown led all scorers with 35 points, but it wasn't enough for Team USA to keep things competitive.

Earlier in the evening, Quavo stole the show in the celebrity game, scoring 19 points (7-10 FGs) to go along with 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals as he earned MVP honors.
