The best NBA players in the league head to Indianapolis this weekend for the 73rd NBA All-Star Game. It will be played under traditional All-Star Game rules, meaning the Eastern Conference will face the Western Conference in a contest with a traditional scoring system and four 12-minute quarters. The game tips off on TNT and TBS at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on February 18. The All-Star game is available to stream on Max, and an alternate broadcast with Charles Barkley will air on truTV.

The Eastern Conference roster includes Giannis Antetokounmpo (Milwaukee Bucks), Jayson Tatum (Boston Celtics), Joel Embiid (Philadelphia 76ers), Tyrese Haliburton (Indiana Pacers), Damian Lillard (Milwaukee Bucks), Jalen Brunson (New York Knicks), Donovan Mitchell (Cleveland Cavaliers), Tyrese Maxey (Philadelphia 76ers), Jaylen Brown (Boston Celtics), Paolo Banchero (Orlando Magic), Bam Adebayo (Miami Heat), and Julius Randle (New York Knicks). Embiid and Randle will not play due to injury and will be replaced by Trae Young (Atlanta Hawks) and Scottie Barnes (Toronto Raptors).
