LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo will once again captain either NBA All-Star side. This time, though, it's East vs. West. This will be James' 20th All-Star appearance and Antetokounmpo's eighth.
In 2023, Team Giannis defeated Team LeBron 184–175, and Jayson Tatum scored an All-Star Game record 55 points to win All-Star Game MVP.
This year's field features a few first-time All-Stars as well. Paolo Banchero, Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Maxey and Scottie Barnes made their first All-Star rosters for the East.
Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made his second consecutive All-Star team, but first as a starter.
The 73rd NBA All-Star game will cap off a wild weekend of events in Indianapolis, Indiana, featuring the standard Skills Challenge, 3-Point Contest and Slam Dunk Contest, as well as the Stephen vs. Sabrina 3-Point Challenge, the G League Next Up game and the HBCU Classic.

2023 NBA All-Star Game rosters and coaches
NBA All-Star rosters were voted on by fans, the media and players. Fans counted toward 50% of the vote, while the media and players counted for 25% each.
Each player was then ranked by their position in each conference to determine starters – and fan votes were used as the tiebreakers. For example, Damian Lillard earned the second starting spot in the Eastern Conference over Jalen Brunson.
Injury replacements were picked by NBA commissioner Adam Silver.
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers will coach the Eastern Conference team, while Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch will coach the Western Conference.
