NBA All-Star Game: Who will start? Did Sixers' Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons make the cut? Who was snubbed?

The NBA announced its All-Star starters on Thursday night on TNT just before the Sixers' game against the Boston Celtics.

For all who didn't make the cut as starters, they still have a chance to be selected as reserves, as voted on by the NBA's coaches. The All-Star reserves will be announced on Jan. 23. Then, in a new All-Star twist, there will no longer be Eastern Conference and Western Conference teams at the actual game. Instead, there will be two captains -- the highest-vote getter from each conference -- who will conduct a draft and create their own rosters using the pool of selected All-Star players.
