Top 2024 NBA All-Star Game predictions
One of the NBA All-Star Game score projections is from Matt Severance, who is 108-57 (+1924) with his last 165 NBA picks. He is predicting the West beats the East in a 174-170 thriller.
The West comes into this game with multiple players who are perennial NBA MVP candidates, including Kevin Durant, Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic. They also have one of the best players in league history on their side in LeBron James, giving them a stacked lineup. In fact, their lineup is so strong that Stephen Curry is coming off the bench.
The East has several first-time starters in their lineup, and they are going to be without one of their best players, Joel Embiid, who appeared to be on track for a second consecutive NBA MVP award prior to his injury last month. His replacement, Bam Adebayo, could have trouble slowing down Jokic, especially with so many deadly shooters spacing the floor. Severance expects the West to come out on top in a game that is lower scoring than usual due to the return of the East vs. West format. See the rest of the experts' NBA score projections here.
