The NBA is considering a new tournament-style format for the All-Star Game, where 24 All-Stars would be divided into three teams of eight players, with the Rising Stars Challenge winner forming the fourth team. This change aims to increase competitiveness and fan engagement, following criticism of last year's game for lacking intensity. The new format could debut during the All-Star weekend in San Francisco from February 14-16, 2025.
