The NBA All-Star Game features the best players in the league showcasing their skills with and against each other. Here’s how to watch.

The 2023 NBA All-Star Game in Salt Lake City, UT, is the place to be on Feb. 19. But if you can’t be there in person, you’ll have to settle for catching all the action on television or streaming online.

This year’s game will feature all the typical hijinx but with at least one new wrinkle. Since 2018, the player who received the most votes in each conference served as a captain, drafting their teams to create cross-conference squads. At first, this process was done in secret with the rosters only revealed after the fact. The past few years it’s been televised.

This year it will not only be televised but conducted right before the game starts. That means we won’t know who is on each squad until right before tip-off. This creates the opportunity for all sorts of chaos, including a little extra motivation for those picked last without the space of a few weeks for the sting to wear off.

The draft will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET with the game to being at 8:00. Here’s what you’ll need to watch along.
