The 2018 NBA All-Star Game will take place on Sunday, Feb. 18 at Staples Center in Los Angeles. This will be the first year the exhibition game will be held under a different format. No longer will the best players from the Eastern and Western Conferences square off against each other. The leading vote-getter from each conference now chooses players to form their own roster in a non-televised draft.
Below you’ll find a list of previous winners and MVPs from every game. It’s worth noting that the Eastern Conference All-Stars led the series 37-29 before the format changed in 2018.
