Hoops are going Hollywood.
On Sunday, Feb. 15, the 75th NBA All-Star Game will take place at Inglewood, CA’s Intuit Dome, aka the home of the Los Angeles Clippers.
Western Conference starters this year include Lakers top scorer Luka Dončić (sixth selection), Warriors sharpshoot Stephen Curry (12th), Thunder 2025 NBA Finals MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (fourth), dominant Nuggets big man Nikola Jokić (eighth) and wiry Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (second).
Starting for the East are the Bucks franchise player Giannis Antetokounmpo (10th), 76ers rising star Tyrese Maxey (second selection), clutch Knicks leader Jalen Brunson (third), Pistons bruiser Cade Cunningham (second) and Celtics icon Jaylen Brown (fifth).
Yes, you read that right, LeBron isn’t starting an NBA All-Star Game for the first time 2004 back when George W. Bush was President, Outkast had the No. 1-song in the country with “The Way You Move” and Kenan Thompson was in his first season as an “SNL” cast member.
If you’d like to be there to witness this exciting contest live — in a totally new “USA vs. The World” round-robin format — tickets are available on the primary and secondary market on sites like StubHub and Vivid Seats.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on 2026 NBA All-Star Game tickets was $1,257 including fees on GameTime.
100-level seats start at $3,590 including fees on GameTime as well.
For the uninitiated, the “USA vs. The World” tournament will be between three teams: two consisting of players from the U.S. and one made up of international stars. Games last 12 minutes.
In addition to the this unconventional All-Star series, the high-flying Dunk Contest, tongue-in-cheek Celebrity Game, scrappy Rookie Game and endlessly entertaining practice also take place over the long President’s Day weekend.

NBA Saturday Night 2026
Saturday night, which happens to fall on Valentine’s Day this year, is when things pick up on All-Star Weekend.
The annual skills challenge — made up of the Dunk Contest, Three-Point Contest and, of course, the Skills Challenge — generally draw more “oohs, ahhs, and whoas” than the actual games.
To see the highest fliers, sharpest shooters and crispest passers at the Clippers’ Intuit Dome, tickets start at $810 including fees on GameTime.
NBA Celebrity Game 2026
Although we don’t know who will take the floor for this year’s celebrity game, we’d guess it’ll be a mishmash of rappers, former NBA players, current NFL stars, Backstreet Boys and comedians based on the bizarre yet always entertaining rosters from years past.
If this sounds like your idea of goofy hoops fun, you can scoop up seats for $81 including fees on StubHub.
NBA Rookie Game 2026
Friday night’s Rising Stars Challenge, aka the Rookie Game, is where the league’s most talented first and second-year players compete for bragging rights on Friday, Feb. 13.
Tickets can be snagged for $113 including fees on GameTime to see the game’s future stars before they become household names.
Hoping to sit in the lower-level?
We found tickets priced at $310 including fees (also on GameTime).
As of now, rosters have not been announced for the Rising Stars Challenge.
