The NBA All-Star Game is on the horizon, and the starting lineups for the 2026 game have been announced! Ten players have secured their spots, all set to showcase their skills in the highly anticipated match that will be broadcast on NBC and Peacock.

In the Eastern Conference, we have Giannis Antetokounmpo from the Milwaukee Bucks making his 10th appearance, alongside Jaylen Brown from the Boston Celtics, Jalen Brunson from the New York Knicks, Cade Cunningham from the Detroit Pistons, and Tyrese Maxey from the Philadelphia 76ers.

Representing the Western Conference are some heavyweights like Stephen Curry from the Golden State Warriors in his 12th appearance, Nikola Jokić from the Denver Nuggets making his 8th appearance, Luka Dončić from the Los Angeles Lakers in his 6th appearance, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from the Oklahoma City Thunder appearing for the 4th time, and Victory Wembanyama from the San Antonio Spurs making his 2nd appearance.

The selection process for the All-Star starters involved fans, current NBA players, and a media panel, with Jokić and Antetokounmpo emerging as top vote-getters in their respective conferences. The reserves for both conferences will be chosen by NBA head coaches, with the results set to be revealed at a later date.

This year’s All-Star Game will feature a unique U.S. vs. World format with teams competing in a round-robin tournament. The game is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 15, and all the action, including the Slam Dunk Contest and Three-Point Contest, will be aired on NBC for the first time since 2002.
