The 2024 NBA All-Star Game starters were named Thursday night. The game will be played Feb. 18 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Starting lineups were determined by a combination of fan (50%), media (25%) and player (25%) voting, and the rest of the rosters are determined by coaches. Twelve players from the Eastern and Western conferences will participate.

The East vs. West format returning after several years of team captains picking teammates.

Though it has little bearing on the outcome, the West starters have much more All-Star Game experience (48 cumulative appearances) than the East (30). All the starters have multiple years in the event.

NBA All-Star Game format

The game will be four 12-minute quarters, like a standard game. The league had used an "Elam ending" format, in which the end of the game was untimed but a team won when reaching a target score. That system, developed by a Ball State University professor, has an interesting theory about the NBA's move.

The teams will continue competing to win each quarter for a charitable cause they choose.
