In the Regional Game of the Capital Classic held at the MCI Center in Washington, DC, the United All-Stars came to play as Brandon Bowman slammed down the opening tip leading his teammates on a 7-0 run before the Capital All-Stars could answer with a bucket of their own. As with most All-Star games, turnovers were the norm, especially for the Capitals as they struggled to get a cohesive offense going. With both teams substituting freely and buckets being traded at both ends, the United All-Stars led at the end the first quarter 32-25. Chadd Moore led the U.S. team with 8 points in the period to go along with his 3 boards and 4 assists. The Capital All-Stars managed to keep it close on 4-for-4 shooting by Nick George.

The second stanza wasn't much different from the first quarter, with both teams free-wheeling and dunking until the last 5 minutes before intermission when the U.S. squad went on a tear and and came up with a 16-point halftime lead. Chadd Moore, Brandon Bowman and Robert Hite combined for 33 points in the half for the United All-Stars while Michael Castro posed the big offensive threat for the Capital Stars, pouring in 9 big points.

There was no quit in Capital team as they regrouped at intermission and managed to outscore the U.S. squad 22-20 for the period but still had a big deficit to overcome as the quarter ended 81-67 in favor of the United States All-Stars. Chris Williams was a big factor in the Capital comeback scoring 7 for the period. Shawan Robinson for the U.S. team was perfect offensively, converting on all 4 field goal attempts and 2 free throws.

The fourth period could have been renamed a dunk-a-thon with both teams powering to the hoop. The U.S. All-Stars built a 103-83 lead with four minutes left in the contest and it was all but over except for a little show time from both squads. The game ended with the U.S. squad victorious by a score of 119-97. Robert Hite captured MVP honors for the United States All-Stars, scoring 15 points on 60% shooting. Also scoring in double digits for the U.S. squad were Chadd Moore, Shawan Robinson, Brandon Bowman, Lee Melchionni, Derrick Byers and Nik Medley-Caner. Nick George led all scorers with 18 as he garnered the MVP for the Capital All-Stars. Chris McCray, Chris Williams and Michael Castro also proved big offensively for the Capitals.
