When are the NBA All-Star Game Reserves announced?

Anticipation is building as New York Knicks fans wait to learn if Jalen Brunson will be named an All-Star for the first time in his career. Don't forget about Julius Randle, who averaged 24 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game before he went down with a dislocated right shoulder.

There was plenty of disappointment from fans when Kenny Smith revealed that Damian Lillard will start over Brunson at the 2024 All-Star Game. Although Brunson rightfully took the high road and said that Lillard deserved to be a starter, the Knicks point guard has had a better season than the Bucks guard.

Rather than talk about what should've been, it's time to look forward to the All-Star reserves announcement.

When will Knicks' Jalen Brunson be named an All-Star reserve?

How are NBA All-Star reserves selected?
