Lakers News: NBA All-Star Voting For 2024 Already Begun

 

The NBA All-Star voting presented by AT&T begins on Tuesday, December 19 at 4 a.m. PT and ends on Saturday, January 20 at 8:59 p.m. PT. Fans will be able to vote for the starters for the 2024 NBA All-Star Game via the NBA App and NBA.com using NBA ID, the league’s global membership program.

During this time, fans with NBA IDs can cast one full ballot every day via the NBA App and NBA.com. One full ballot will include three frontcourt players and two guards from both the Eastern and Western Conferences, as well as all current NBA players.

United States voters will automatically be entered into the NBA ID All-Star Voting Sweepstakes presented by AT&T for the opportunity to win a trip to Indianapolis for NBA All-Star 2024. Additionally, those fans with NBA ID traveling to Indianapolis for the game will have access to things such as in-venue seat upgrades and more.

There will also be six “3-for-1 days” in which a fan vote will count three times. These days are Christmas Day, New Years Day, Jan. 5, 12, 15 and 19. Fan vote updates will be revealed on the first three Thursdays of January with the starters being announced on TNT on Jan. 25. The reserves will be announced the following Thursday, Feb. 1, also on TNT.

Fan voting will account for 50 percent of the vote with players and media votes accounting for 25 percent each. After all votes are tallied, players will be ranked by position in each conference within the three voting groups of fans, players and media.

Each player’s score will be calculated by averaging his weighted rank from the fan votes, the player votes and the media votes with the two guards and three frontcourt players with the best score being named starters. Fan vote will be the tiebreaker should any players wind up with the same score.

The NBA All-Star Game will take place on Sunday, Feb. 18 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana at 5 p.m. PT. It will air on TNT and reach fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 50 languages.

Los Angeles Lakers legend LeBron James is currently tied with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with 19 All-Star Game appearances and would set a new record with his 20th appearance. Anthony Davis is looking for his first All-Star selection since 2021.
