We’ll keep you updated on every pick of the 2023 NBA All-Star draft.

The NBA All-Star Game moved to a draft format in 2018 with the leading vote-getters in each conference serving as captains. For the first time in 2023, the draft will take place immediately before the All-Star Game with LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo making the picks.

James gets the first pick in the draft because he earned the most votes of any player this year. In an effort to avoid someone getting picked last, the league is having James and Antetokounmpo pick from the reserves first before choosing between the eight starters. While conference affiliation mattered in voting, it doesn’t matter if players come from the East or the West when LeBron and Giannis begin picking their teams.

Zion Williamson, Kevin Durant, and Stephen Curry will each miss the game with injuries. Joel Embiid, Lauri Markkanen, and Ja Morant were bumped up to starters in their place, and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards, Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam, and Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox are their injury replacements on the bench.

Here’s the full pool of players James and Antetokounmpo will be picking from:
