With the NBA All-Star break officially underway, many fans look forward to the revamped All-Star Game format that pins four separate teams against each other in a mini-tournament. Many players earned their first All-Star appearances this season, but the first-timers are headlined by San Antonio Spurs superstar Victor Wembanyama.

For the first time, the NBA All-Star Game will feature a mini-tournament with four teams and three games. The semifinals will see two teams facing off in Game 1, while the other two battle in Game 2. The winners of both games will advance to the championship in Game 3. Each game will be decided by the first team to score at least 40 points.
