The 2018 All-Star Game will be held in Los Angeles at the Staples Center on Feb. 18.
In October, the NBA announced a revamp to the All-Star Game. Captains will now draft players out of a pool of players voted in as starters and reserves, with the lead vote-getter from each conference getting the captain job. The game will also be played for local charities, adding an incentive to win the game.
The 2019 All-Star Game will be played in Charlotte at Spectrum Center.
