Usually Jam Session is like the NFL experience, and is held in the Convention Center. Due to relocating the All Star game etc, Will they still have it? Or no? J/w based off of some of the stuff I have looked up I don't see it anywhere. The NBA All Star practice and other events that usually take place in the Convention Center is being held in the Super Dome...

Anyone with a little inside information or knowledge on this they can share? Trying to plan on going to some things if we can.

I have been searching as well and been unable to find it. I asked my ticket rep and she did not know. It is very disappointing that it appears they will not have it. It was the best way to get all of the youth involved in the festivities. My son really wanted to go again.

I dont think they are.. with the late switch from NC to NOLA.. the convention center was already booked.

I had originally heard that they were going to do it in the Dome, but that must have just been speculation.

What site is that? If that is-

I don't think it is a site run by the NBA. In looking at the Superdome schedule of events, the Jam Session is not listed on their calendar.

yeah the Jam Session was great experience for youth. I was hoping to take my whole basketball team. Big reason for us playing in Nola that weekend.

I saw it listed too but its kind of late in the game for the NBA not to promote it. Its bullshite if they dont do it. Its one of the more affordable ways to involve kids and be interactive
