2023 NBA All-Star Game Participants

The NBA All-Star Game has taken a slightly different format this year, and the draft will take place just one hour before tip off. LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo are the captains, but the other players in the game won’t know what team they’ll be on until just before the game gets underway.

Team Captains @KingJames and @Giannis_An34 will select from the Player Pool in the 2023 #NBAAllStar Draft presented by Jordan Brand.

It will air as a new, live pregame segment at the 2023 NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, Feb. 19 at 7:30 pm ET from Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City. pic.twitter.com/fkl1kg3adQ
