The NBA All-Star 2020 team rosters will be drafted by the two captains. They will choose from the pool of players voted as starters and reserves in each conference, making their selections regardless of conference affiliation. The captains will be the All-Star starter from each conference who receives the most fan votes in his conference.

TNT will reveal the NBA All-Star Game starters, including the two team captains, on Thursday, Jan. 23 (Jan. 24, PHL time) during TNT NBA Tip-Off presented by Autotrader. The network will also announce the reserves, as selected by NBA head coaches, on Thursday, Jan. 30 (Jan. 31, PHL time) during TNT NBA Tip-Off.

After all votes are tallied, players will be ranked in each conference by position (guard and frontcourt) within each of the three voting groups – fan votes, player votes and media votes. Each player’s score will be calculated by averaging his weighted rank from the fan votes, the player votes and the media votes. The two guards and three frontcourt players with the best score in each conference will be named NBA All-Star Game starters. Fan voting will serve as the tiebreaker for players in a position group with the same score.

The 2-for-1 Days, which are designated 12 a.m. – 11:59 p.m. ET, take place today (Jan. 3, PHL time), tomorrow (Jan. 4, PHL time), Jan. 10 (Jan. 11, PHL time), Jan. 16 (Jan. 17, PHL time) and Jan. 20 (Jan. 21, PHL time) through all voting platforms.
