Salt Lake City and the Utah Jazz wanted to show the world they are an inclusive city, after reports in the past indicating otherwise. The NBA had a special halftime show planned at Vivint Arena featuring an all-Nigeran lineup with afrobeats superstars Burna Boy, Tems and Rema.<\/p>\n
The show was a lengthy celebration of African music, headlined entirely by the country of Nigeria. The catchy songs had most of the NBA All-Stars avoid the lockerroom at halftime and stay courtside to watch and record the artists.<\/p>\n
