In a surprising twist, the 2025 NBA All-Star Game will see LeBron James and Anthony Davis reunite as teammates on Team Shaq, captained by Shaquille O'Neal. This marks a reunion of the championship-winning duo after their time together with the Los Angeles Lakers. The All-Star Game will feature a new four-team tournament format, with Team Shaq facing off against Team Kenny, Team Chuck, and Team Candace.
In a surprising twist, LeBron James and Anthony Davis will reunite as teammates in the 2025 NBA All-Star Game , not with the Los Angeles Lakers, but on Team Shaq . Shaquille O'Neal, serving as honorary captain in the revamped All-Star format, selected James with the first overall pick and then, unexpectedly, chose Davis as his third pick.
This reunion comes after the duo won a championship together with the Lakers in 2020, but their time together has since been marred by injuries and struggles for the Lakers, culminating in Davis's trade to the Dallas Mavericks. The 2025 All-Star Game will feature a new format, shifting from a traditional East vs. West matchup to a four-team tournament. Team Shaq, captained by O'Neal, comprises a formidable roster of stars, including Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and James Harden, alongside James and Davis. Team Kenny, led by Kenny Smith, boasts the likes of Anthony Edwards and other rising talents. Team Chuck, captained by Charles Barkley, features a formidable lineup of size, with MVPs Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo, alongside Karl-Anthony Towns and Victor Wembanyama, making his All-Star debut. The fourth team, named Team Candace and led by WNBA legend Candace Parker, will consist of the best first- and second-year players and G League stars.
