The NBA All-Star game is an incredible occasion simply because it features the biggest stars in the competition all coming together in the same arena at the same time. Similarly, the NBA All-Star game also features some of the best coaches in the Championship going head to head against each other, directing and guiding the best players in the league from the courtside dugout.

The NBA All-Star team head coaches typically are the Eastern and Western Conference head coaches of the conference leaders midway through the season. The NBA has altered its rules and now a head coach cannot coach the All-Star team in back-to-back seasons so in those cases, the head coach from the second place team takes the lead.

One of the questions that has been recently asked in the build-up to the 2023 NBA All-Star game is that who will be coaching the team led by Giannis Antetokounmpo.
