The starting players for each conference team in the NBA All-Star Game are determined by fan voting, while the reserves for the game are chosen by the league’s head coaches, who are asked to vote for seven players from their respective conferences — two guards, two forwards, one center and two additional players, regardless of position. (They are not allowed to vote for players from their own team.)
