James Naismith once said that basketball had its origin in Indiana, and as the NBA descends upon the Hoosier state for All-Star weekend, the All-Star Game, too, returns to its roots. 

For the first time since 2017, the All-Star Game will feature an East-West format. The past six games had featured team captains and playground-style drafts. 

The traditional East-West format is set to pose a slew of intriguing matchups, with Jayson Tatum and Giannis Antetokounmpo set to clash with LeBron James, Luka Doncic and a star-studded Western Conference roster. 

Here is a complete guide to watching the 2024 NBA All-Star Game, including the TV schedule and live stream information for the final event of All-Star weekend.
