NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announces the return of the classic East vs. One player from each conference with the highest number of votes will still serve as the captain of their respective teams, but there won’t be an All-Star draft anymore. The NBA is returning to an East versus West format in 2024 for the first time since 2017. The format of the 2024 NBA All-Star Game has changed after several years of a mix of players from both conferences being on the same team. New York Knicks fans are hoping they’ll get to cheer on a couple of their favorite players in Indianapolis in February. The 2023-24 season just started, but before you know it, the All-Star break will be here.
