This season, selection will be based on voting by fans (50 percent), players (25 percent) and media (25 percent), the National Basketball Association announced on Monday.
The All-Star Game will be played in New Orleans on Feb. 19.
All-Star weekend was originally scheduled for Charlotte, North Carolina, but was moved by the NBA in response to that state’s controversial legislation forcing transgender people to use public restrooms matching their gender assigned at birth.
