This year's NBA All-Star Game live stream is built different. And by that we mean we don't even know the teams yet. The NBA All-Star Game live stream starts 8:30 p. m. ET / 5:30 p. m. PT on Sunday (Feb. 19). But you'll probably want to watch the live All-Star draft, which starts an hour earlier, at 7:30 p. m. ET / 4:30 p. m. PT. Both will air on TNT nationally, which is available on Sling TV (opens in new tab) . What we do know is that the teams will be drafted by captains LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo right before the game begins. That's one way to make sure this NBA live stream will have the least cohesion possible. The player pool features eight starters in addition to the captains: Stephen Curry, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, the always-controversial Kyrie Irving (who is listed as a Nets player in the official graphic, hilariously enough), Nikola Jokic, Dovovan Mitchell, Jayson Tatum and Zion Williamson. This live draft should prove interesting, and if the game's a hit, it feels like we'll have a new tradition on our hands. Durant was an early favorite for captain status in fan voting, but he fell behind the Greek Freak. As for who will win? Well, as long as King James has been captain, his teams have never lost. In terms of NBA All-Star Game odds, Team LeBron is currently 3-point favorites to win. The moneyline has Team LeBron at -150 (bet $150 to win $100) and Team Giannis at +130 (bet $100 to win $130).

If you've already cut the cord and don't have a cable package, you'll be able to get this game on Sling TV . While we love FuboTV for a lot of sports (it is one of our picks for the best streaming services ), it doesn't have TNT. TNT is included in the $40 per month Sling Orange (opens in new tab) , which also has ESPN. Hulu with Live TV and YouTube TV also gets TNT. But when it comes to the best cable TV alternatives , we go with Sling here even though it doesn't have ABC (though you can get it with one of the best TV antennas ), as ABC basketball games will be on ESPN3. Sling TV (opens in new tab) : You can get ESPN and TNT in the Sling Orange package. The 30-plus channels in the lineup include AMC, CNN, Food Network, AMC, Comedy Central, HGTV and many more.
