NBA All-Star Game all time winners full list, results, score and winner and runner up prize money
When did the NBA All-Star Game debut?
The East defeated the West 111-94 in the inaugural NBA All-Star Game in 1951, which took place at Boston Garden. Since then, every year except for 1999, when the NBA lockout forced the cancellation of the All-Star Game, has seen the event.
Nine ABA All-Star Games took place between 1968 and 1976 in addition to the 71 previous NBA All-Star Games.
Which conference has the most NBA All-Star Games victories?
NBA All-Star Game victories are divided between 37 for the Eastern Conference and 29 for the West.
The first five decades of All-Star history were dominated by the East, but the West made a strong comeback before the format changed from conferences to captains, winning six of the seven games from 2011 to 2017.
In how many NBA All-Star Games has a player served as captain for most time?
LeBron James is not only the NBA’s all-time top scorer, but he is also the only captain to ever take home an All-Star Game trophy.
James was selected as the sixth consecutive All-Star captain this year. With victories over Team Stephen (2018), Team Giannis (2019, 2020), and Team Durant (2021, 2022) Team LeBron is 5-0 but this perfect record was broken yesterday giving James his first NBA All-Star loss as a GM.
The NBA All-Star game participant with the most appearances?
James surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the NBA record books for the second time this month. On Sunday, James played in his 19th NBA All-Star game, breaking a tie with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the record.
Following Abdul-Jabbar with 18 appearances, Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan are next with 15 each. In 2020, the NBA renamed the MVP Award for the All-Star Game after Bryant.
Has the NBA All-Star Game ever been been into overtime?
Overtime was used in six NBA All-Star Games. In the most recent instance, the West actually required two overtimes to defeat the East in Atlanta in 2003.
The Elam Ending, which implemented in 2020, put an end to All-Star overtimes.
