The PLL's inaugural All-Star Game featured the league's top 50 players selected by fans. Once the players were selected earlier this season, the PLL held an All-Star Draft on July 9 for team captains Trevor Baptiste of Atlas and Matt Rambo of the Whipsnakes, who both received the most fan votes, to select their 21 teammates.
Broadcast
The game was broadcast on NBCSN. Analysts Brendan Burke and Ryan Boyle were the play-by-play commentators, along with sideline reporter Chantel McCabe who conducted in-game interviews. Players from each team were mic'd up for "under-the-helmet" interviews with analyst Ryan Boyle up in the booth. They were Paul Rabil, Justin Guterding and Jarrod Neumann of Team Baptiste, as well as, opposing team captain Matt Rambo. Syracuse Lacrosse player, Lacrosse Hall of Fame and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Jim Brown joined the analysts in the booth during halftime and also gave an opening speech to all the players before the game. Also, Chantel McCabe interviewed legendary lacrosse player Gary Gait during the second quarter.
