The 2021 NBA 2K League All-Star Game will be a 5-on-5, best-of-three series with players competing on PS5 consoles in NBA 2K22’s Pro-Am mode. The NBA 2K League will award a $25,000 prize pool with the winning and losing team receiving $18,000 and $7,000, respectively.
Fans accounted for 50 percent of the vote, players accounted for 25 percent of the vote, and a combination of head coaches, general managers and media accounted for the final 25 percent of the vote. Fan voting served as the tiebreaker for players in a position group with the same score.
After all votes are tallied, players were ranked in each conference by position (backcourt and frontcourt) within each of the three voting groups. Each player’s score was calculated by averaging their weighted rank from the fan votes, the player votes, and the head coach, general manager and media votes. The three backcourt and four frontcourt players with the best score in each conference were named 2021 NBA 2K League All-Stars.
Wizards District Gaming head coach Patrick “Pcross11” Crossan will coach the Eastern Conference team while Jazz Gaming head coach Jelani “Comp” Mitchell will lead the Western Conference team.
