2024 NBA Rising Stars rules

The 2024 NBA Rising Stars will have three teams, which follows the format used from the recent seasons. Three teams will have the chance to draft players from the 21-player pool that's comprised of rookies, sophomores and G-League standouts.

Hall of Famers Pau Gasol and Tamika Catchings will be joined by former NBA player Jalen Rose as coaches and select players from the Rising Stars Draft. German former basketball star Detlef Schrempf will be the coach of the G-League stars. Each of them will construct a seven-man team on Tuesday, Feb. 16 at 4 p.m. ET.

There will be three games for the Panini Rising Stars and will reach a Final Target Score. Each game result will be made with a final field goal or free throw instead of waiting for the clock to end. The semis will have a Final Target Score of 40. The finals will have a lower Final Target Score of 25.

Team A will face Team B in the first game of the mini-tournament. Team C and Team D will be the second game, but will still fall under the category of the semifinals. The winners of the first and second games will be the teams that will play in the final round.

Coaches will get a chance to construct their team for the 2024 NBA Rising Stars. Last season, It was Team Pau that won the Rising Stars game and Gasol will have the chance to defend his position as a defending champion.
