Stars on the Court

All-Star games resolve questions for fans of sports. Hypothetical matchups between stars of sports become real, answering who is the best of the best. That leaves room to ask other questions today, during the KC Magic Third-Annual All-Star Basketball Game with Clay Johnson, featuring celebrities Dean Cain, Bill Bellamy and hip-hop artist Tank. Can Bellamy’s quick wit defuse the powerful low-post game of someone who played Superman almost two decades ago? Does Dean Cain have an unfair advantage given his extensive experience in celebrity sporting tournaments? Why is Tank so famous that he only goes by one name? How does a former Laker and Missouri player know both Donald Faison from Scrubs and Flex Anderson? Who is Flex Anderson, anyway? The game is at 3:30 p.m. at Municipal Auditorium (301 West 13th Street). Tickets cost $10 to $25. Call 800-745-3000 or 816-513-5000.
