For the first time ever, the NBA All-Star game draft will take place as a live selection process directly before the 2023 event.
The live pregame segment will air on TNT just before the All-Star game on Sunday, February 19.
While the timing of the draft will change, the selection process that was introduced a few years back will remain the same. The two team captains will select their teams from the pool of players voted as starters and reserves in their respective conferences.
Take a look at the NBA’s official announcement here:
Team captains will be the All-Star starters from each conference who received the most fan votes. Captains and starters will be announced on TNT later this week (Jan. 26). All-Star reserves will be announced next week (Feb. 2).
LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo currently lead the fan voting in their respective conferences.
All-Star weekend in Salt Lake City will tipoff with the Slam Dunk Contest, 3-Point Contest and Skills Challenge on Feb. 18.
