The hardwood heats up in San Francisco as the NBA’s elite converge for the 74th All-Star Game. This year’s showdown takes place at the Chase Center, where basketball’s brightest stars will bring their skills in a dazzling display of athleticism and questionable defense.
The Eastern Conference starters boast a potent mix of veteran talent and rising stars: Jalen Brunson, Donovan Mitchell, Karl-Anthony Towns, Trae Young, and Jayson Tatum. They’ll face off against a Western Conference starting lineup anchored by the legendary Stephen Curry, alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Nikola Jokic, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James.
The benches are equally stacked. The East’s reserves include Darius Garland, Cade Cunningham, Damian Lillard, Tyler Herro, Jaylen Brown, Evan Mobley, and Pascal Siakam. The West counters with Anthony Edwards, James Harden, the much-hyped Victor Wembanyama, Jalen Williams, Alperen Sengun, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Kyrie Irving.
Will LeBron continue his All-Star dominance? Can Curry light up the Chase Center with his signature long-range bombs? Will anyone actually play defense? These questions and more will be answered (or not) when the 2025 NBA All-Star Game tips off Sunday, February 16, 2025, at 8:00 PM ET on TNT.
