The NBA announced the 14 reserve players for the All-Star Game rosters on Thursday night
The 2025 NBA All-Star rosters have been set. After last week’s announcement of the 10 starters, Thursday brought us the 14 final selections, who will be classified as reserves at All-Star Weekend in San Francisco in February.
Of course, we should point out that the typical starter/reserve structure for All-Star selections is going to differ this year. Rather than a traditional two-team All-Star setup, four teams will play on All-Star Sunday. Three of them will be composed of the 24 All-Star selections drafted by the cast of Inside the NBA. The fourth will be the winning team from Friday’s Rising Star Challenge. Obviously, with three teams, a total of 15 players will ultimately start, but the classification of starters and reserves still matters from the perspective of honoring the 10 best players through the first half of the season.
And so, without further ado, here are our full 2024-25 All-Star rosters.

All-Star Weekend will begin on Feb. 14 in San Francisco with the Rising Star Challenge. The traditional Saturday slate of events will be held on Feb. 15, with the newly revamped All-Star tournament closing things out on Feb. 16. After last season’s disappointing All-Star Game, everything that happens in San Francisco this time around will be under heavy scrutiny, but with this star-studded group of players, hopefully, the weekend will go off without a hitch.
