February 12, 2026
NBC Sports will serve as the home for comprehensive coverage of the 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend, delivering three consecutive days of premium live events leading into the milestone 75th NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, February 15. Across broadcast and streaming, NBCUniversal will provide fans with unprecedented access to the league’s biggest stars, emerging talent, and signature All-Star competitions — marking the return of NBA All-Star to NBC for the first time since 2002 and its debut on Peacock.
NBC Sports’ coverage of NBA All-Star 2026 is part of Legendary February, NBCUniversal’s ongoing month of iconic sports programming featuring the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, Super Bowl LX, and NBA All-Star — an unprecedented stretch of live global sports moments across NBCUniversal platforms.
The 2026 celebration introduces a historic evolution of the All-Star Game with the debut of the “U.S. vs. World” mini-tournament format. For the first time, three All-Star teams — Team USA Stars, Team USA Stripes, and Team World — will compete in a round-robin tournament culminating in a championship matchup between the top two teams. The new structure highlights the NBA’s global reach while showcasing the league’s elite American and international talent.
World-Class Talent Across Broadcast, Streaming, and Spanish-Language Coverage
NBC Sports’ talent roster for NBA All-Star 2026 is headlined by Naismith Basketball Hall of Famers Reggie Miller, Carmelo Anthony, Vince Carter, and Tracy McGrady, alongside three-time NBA Sixth Man of the Year Jamal Crawford and play-by-play voice Noah Eagle, who will become the youngest commentator to broadcast the NBA All-Star Game at 29 years old.
Reggie Miller, Jamal Crawford, and Noah Eagle will call All-Star events across the weekend, including Rising Stars, All-Star Saturday, and the NBA All-Star Game. Courtside reporting will be led by Zora Stephenson and Ashley ShahAhmadi.
Telemundo will deliver comprehensive Spanish-language coverage of the NBA All-Star Game led by legendary play-by-play announcer Álvaro Martín, alongside analysts Greivis Vásquez, former NBA player and Venezuelan national team standout, and Diego Balado, a renowned international sports analyst.
