The 2024 NBA All-Star weekend will culminate with the much-awaited NBA All-Star game starring the best of the West and the East conferences.
After last year's Salt Laker City in 2023, the premier event will head to Indianapolis, where the two teams led by LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo will look to go toe-to-toe against each other.
Like the past, the roster features a slew of newcomers who will be regular features in years to come. This season's All-Star weekend also features the return of the familiar All-Star game format.
According to the league's site, the All-Star Game will not have an untimed fourth quarter or conclude when one of the teams reaches a required target. Instead, they will continue to compete to win each quarter for a charitable organization they choose.
All of the NBA's 30 coaches selected the reserves for the game, while commissioner Adam Silver picked the replacement for any player unable to participate in the marquee weekend.
In related news, Trae Young and Scottie Barnes have been named as replacements for Joel Embiid and Julius Randle.
Ahead of the Sunday main event, the teams have already hit a practice session, and here's a quick primer about the game.
