All-Star Weekend 2014 tipped off with the annual Sprint Celebrity Game, and ESPN's own Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose were the coaches. In the end, Rose's East squad came out on top, thanks to a big game from Arne Duncan. The U.S. Secretary of Education had a game-record 20 points, 11 rebounds and six assists and was given MVP honors by Kevin Hart (who was originally voted MVP by the fans). Check out the sights from a star-studded night in New Orleans.

Congrats to @jalenrose for a hard-fought victory. Coaching is stressful and i can totally understand why Thibs always looks constipated now.

Yes, 5-foot-4 @KevinHart4real out-jumped @NickCannon (6-foot) on the opening tip. Is a third MVP in the works? pic.twitter.com/MQse6zvK2a
