The NBA today announced changes to the
format for the 2024 NBA All-Star Game, which will be played on
Sunday, Feb. 18 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, home of
the Indiana Pacers.
As the league celebrates basketball’s
deep roots in the state of Indiana, the 73rd NBA
All-Star Game will feature the return of both the classic matchup
between the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference and the
traditional scoring system with four 12-minute quarters.
The voting process to determine the
NBA All-Stars will remain the same, with 12 players selected from
each conference.
While the NBA All-Star Game will no
longer have an untimed fourth quarter or conclude when one team
reaches or surpasses the Final Target Score, the teams will
continue to compete to win each quarter for a charitable
organization of their choosing.
NBA All-Star Game team captains will
still be named to lead their respective teams. The captains will be
the All-Star starter from each conference who receives the most fan
votes in his conference during NBA All-Star Voting presented by
AT&T.
The 2024 NBA All-Star Game will air on
TNT in the United States and reach fans in more than 200 countries
and territories in more than 50 languages.
Indianapolis will host NBA All-Star
for the first time since 1985.
