The New York Knicks are one of four teams with at least two players participating in the 2025 NBA All-Star Game but are the only team with two starters. Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns are the first Knicks players to be All-Star starters in 50 years.
The league changed the format this year, so Brunson and Towns aren't on the same team. Try not to let that keep you from enjoying watching those two represent New York.
New 2025 NBA All-Star Game mini-tournament format
The traditional East versus West NBA All-Star Game format isn't happening this year. Instead, the NBA decided to do a mini-tournament. There will be four teams (three made up of NBA All-Stars and the other consisting of the Rising Stars mini-tournament winner) and three games. Games 1 and 2 will be in the semifinal, and the winners will advance to the championship (Game 3). The first team to reach 40 points wins.
