Over the course of the three days, NBA fans will see many of the league's biggest stars show off their skills in games and challenges, and we've got a schedule of the events, as well as where you can watch them, below. Here's what you need to know to watch NBA All-Star Weekend 2025.
How to watch NBA All-Star Weekend in the US
In the US, you're going to find that NBA All-Star weekend is scattered across a few different services and providers. While TNT has the majority of the events, you'll also need access to TruTV, ESPN and NBA TV in order to watch everything being offered. In the schedule below, we'll indicate which channel you need for events.
If your cable package doesn't include TNT, TruTV, ESPN and NBA TV (or you don't have cable), several live TV streaming services offer all four stations. Sling TV has TNT and ESPN on its Orange plan, though you'll need to pay extra for its Sports Extra package to gain access to NBA TV. TruTV is only on the Blue plan, but you'll also be able to find TNT on it. YouTube TV also has all four channels.
Fubo misses out on TNT and TruTV while Hulu with live TV doesn't have NBA TV, so these are options that will get you some, but not all, of the events.
Additionally, the TNT and TruTv NBA All-Star events will be available to stream on Max. Currently, the streaming platform offers a few different options for would-be subscribers.
How to watch NBA All-Star Weekend in the UK
