The time has come to cast your NBA All-Star ballots!
From today, December 19th, through January 20th, you can vote once daily for your favorite Sacramento Kings players.
Last year, De’Aaron Fox (first selection) and Domantas Sabonis (third selection) became the first Kings teammates to be named to the same NBA All-Star team since Peja Stojakovic and Brad Miller were selected during the 2003-04 season.
You can send Fox, Sabonis, and others to this year’s NBA All-Star Game, which is set to take place in Indianapolis, Indiana on February 18th.

How NBA All-Star Voting Works
The following is courtesy of the NBA’s All-Star voting release
Fans can vote on the NBA App or NBA.com with NBA ID, the league’s global membership program. Voters in the United States will be automatically entered into the NBA ID All-Star Voting Sweepstakes presented by AT&T for the opportunity to win a trip to Indianapolis for NBA All-Star 2024.
Additionally, fans with an NBA ID traveling to Indianapolis for NBA All-Star 2024 can access in-venue seat upgrades, member-only prizing and more.
NBA ID, which offers fans benefits and rewards from the league and its partners, is free to join here.
Throughout the voting period, fans with NBA ID may submit one full ballot each day via the NBA App and NBA.com. One full ballot comprises three frontcourt players and two guards from both the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference. All current NBA players will be available for selection.
Fans will have six days where their vote will count three times on special “3-for-1 Days,” with the first day taking place on Christmas Day (Monday, Dec. 25) from 12:01 a.m. ET – 11:59 p.m. ET. Additional 3-for-1 Days will be available on Monday, Jan. 1, Friday, Jan. 5, Friday, Jan. 12, Monday, Jan. 15 and Friday, Jan. 19 from 12:01 a.m. ET – 11:59 p.m. ET.
NBA players and media will continue to join fans in selecting the NBA All-Star Game starters. Fans will account for 50 percent of the vote, while all current players and a media panel will account for 25 percent each. Players and media will be able to complete one ballot.
Fan voting updates will be shared on the first three Thursdays in January (Jan. 4, 11 and 18). TNT will reveal the NBA All-Star Game starters on Thursday, Jan. 25 during TNT NBA Tip-Off presented by CarMax. TNT will also announce the reserves, as selected by NBA head coaches, on Thursday, Feb. 1 during TNT NBA Tip-Off.
After all votes are tallied, players will be ranked in each conference by position (guard and frontcourt) within each of the three voting groups – fan votes, player votes and media votes. Each player’s score will be calculated by averaging his weighted rank from the fan votes, the player votes and the media votes.
The two guards and three frontcourt players with the best score in each conference will be named NBA All-Star Game starters. Fan voting will serve as the tiebreaker for players in a position group with the same score.
When is the next Sacramento Kings game?
Sacramento will continue its six-game home stand on Wednesday night against a Boston Celtics team that has looked like an NBA Finals favorite so far this season.
Boston will be on the second night of a back-to-back after facing the Golden State Warriors in San Francisco on Tuesday night.
