The main highlight of the game is the battle between the East and West team. Each team has 12 players. Players from the East and Players from the West team. This is the time of the year where the usual rival is playing together and the teammates are playing against each other.
The NBA All-Star game was held at the Boston Garden on March 2, 1951. The idea was started by NBA President Maurice Podoloff, NBA publicity director Haskell Cohen and Boston Celtics owner Walter A. Brown.
Cohen suggested the league to host an exhibition game featuring the league’s best players, similar to Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game In the first All-Star Game. On the first game, the Eastern All-Stars team defeated the Western All-Stars team 111–94. Ed Macauley was the first ever NBA All-Star Game MVP.
This year is really different from the rest of the years. The 2018 NBA All-Star Game will work this way, the vote leaders for each conference will assign as team captains and will be able to select players from the rest of the starters and the reserves, regardless of the conference they play in, to form their own teams. This is the first time the conferences will not play against each other.
The All-Star Game is the featured event of All-Star Weekend, and it will be played on the last day and that will be on Sunday night. All-Star Weekend also have different exhibition games and competitions who would be played by NBA players and alumni as well as players from the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) and NBA G League (G League).
