Fan voting has ended. The media and player ballots have been submitted. It’s time to reveal the 2022 NBA All-Stars.
This year’s All-Star Game, which will take place at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, will feature a few familiar faces. LeBron James and Kevin Durant will once again serve as All-Star captains after finishing with the most fan votes in their respective conferences. Former MVPs Giannis Antetokounmpo and Stephen Curry were named All-Star starters, hardly a surprise considering their popularity around the world.
There will also be some rising stars participating in the festivities, though. Trae Young earned his second All-Star berth after not making the cut last season, and Ja Morant was named an All-Star for the first time in his career.
Who else will secure a spot? Who will get snubbed? Here is the full breakdown ahead of All-Star weekend.

How does the NBA All-Star voting process work?
The fan vote accounts for 50 percent of the total vote to determine the starters for the NBA All-Star Game. Current players and media members split the other 50 percent. Each ballot consists of two guards and three frontcourt players from each conference. Reserves are chosen by NBA head coaches, and league commissioner Adam Silver chooses injury replacements if necessary.
All-Star captains will then draft their teams from the eligible pool of players (starters in first round, reserves in second round). Captains will be selected based on which players earn the most fan votes in each conference. They are not required to draft based on conference affiliation or position.
