The 2021 All-Star Game in Atlanta will feature a far different atmosphere than last year's contest, but the contest will still sport the same format as 2020.
The NBA announced on Thursday that the "Elam Ending" will be used to determine the winning team, with a final target score set during an untimed fourth quarter. The rosters for the 2021 All-Star Game will also follow the 2020 format. There will be two captains who select each team, with the captains determined by who receives the most All-Star votes in each conference.
