The Celebrity game follows standard NBA rules, but here are a few key things to note...
-The four quarters are 10 minutes each.
-Each team gets one timeout per half (they don't carry over).
-The clock stops during final two minutes of each quarter (with the exception of timeouts, overtime, and at the official's discretion).
-OT periods are 2 minutes with a running clock. Each team is allowed one timeout plus any not used in the game.
-Players and coaches can be given technical fouls that could result in immediate disqualification.
-Fans and TV viewers will vote on the MVP.
The challenging, or fun part, of hosting is making sure I am just paying attention to the madness happening all around the court and leaning into it."
