As Chinese people are encouraged to stay where they work for Spring Festival holidays from Feb. 11 to 17 to reduce the possibility of being infected with the coronavirus, many fans in China will likely watch the 2021 NBA all-star game at home. The game will be held Feb. 13 to 15.

“We hope to add some color to the home life of those sports fans during this year’s holiday,” said a spokesperson of JD Auction. “These collectables are very special and rare gifts for the new year.”
