The NBA is considering changing the All-Star Game format from the current player draft to Eastern vs. Western Conference, among other concepts. It was a topic of discussion at the most recent meetings of the Governing Council and the GM after this year’s Assistant Secretary-General.
The NBA and the NBPA have agreed in recent months to hold talks about increasing competitiveness in the All-Star Game as part of a new collective bargaining agreement, sources said. Changes may come for the 2023-24 season.
