It’s the first fully marketed deal to deliver an NBA event to the public in live 3D. All-Star Saturday, featuring events such as the slam dunk contest and 3-point shootout, will take place Feb. 14 in Phoenix and be televised by TNT. It will be distributed by Cinedigm Digital Cinema to as many as 160 screens in 35 states. This will be the league’s fourth 3D HD event, but first shown nationwide. The Associated Press
