The NBA has officially released the roster of players for the upcoming All-Star Game, scheduled for February 16th with a new format.

While the starters had already been announced, the full lineup is now confirmed.

Western Conference: Steph Curry (Golden State)*, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma)*, LeBron James (LA Lakers)*, Kevin Durant (Phoenix)*, Nikola Jokic (Denver)*, and starting today, they welcome Anthony Edwards (Minnesota), James Harden (LA Clippers), Anthony Davis (LA Lakers), Jaren Jackson (Memphis), Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio), Alperen Shengun (Houston), and Jaylen Williams (Oklahoma).

Eastern Conference: Jaylen Brunson (New York)*, Donovan Mitchell (Cleveland)*, Jayson Tatum (Boston)*, Karl-Anthony Towns (New York)*, Giannis Antetokounmpo (Milwaukee)*, and as of today, Darius Garland (Cleveland), Cade Cunningham (Detroit), Jaylen Brown (Boston), Pascal Siakam (Indiana), Evan Mobley (Cleveland), Damian Lillard (Milwaukee), and Tyler Herro (Miami).

Notably, Domantas Sabonis is absent from the All-Star Game, despite being the second-most triple-doubled player on the Sacramento roster this season. Additionally, players like Luka Dončić, who missed multiple games due to injuries, were also left out; surprisingly, Trae Young, the league’s leading assist provider from Atlanta, did not make the cut.

Stars who are performing well but are on the trading block, such as Nikola Vučević, Jimmy Butler, and Bradley Beal, are also missing from the roster.

This season’s All-Star Game will feature an innovative format consisting of three mini-games with no scoreboard or quarters, where the first team to reach 40 points will advance. Players will be divided into three teams of eight, selected by Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, and Shaquille O’Neal.

In addition to the All-Star teams, the Upcoming Stars Game will take place on February 14th.
