BBL & WBBL All-Star game voting opens
The British Basketball League has launched their All-Star voting platform, giving fans their chance to shape the Men’s and Women’s lineups for the star-studded event taking place at the Copper Box Arena in London on March 17, 2024.
The All-Star Games will see the best of the best from the British Basketball League come together for one day only in a North v South showdown, in a return of the game for the first time in over two decades.
From today, fans can visit the All-Star voting webpage and pick their favourites for the North v South teams starting fives.
They can select one centre, two forwards and two guards per team, and there is no limit on how many players from one club can be picked in the starting five.
Voting closes on February 15 at 7:00pm (GMT), and the players with the most votes will be selected to start in their respective teams.
The split of teams is as follows:
Men
North: Caledonia Gladiators, Cheshire Phoenix, Manchester Giants, Seriös Group Newcastle Eagles, B. Braun Sheffield Sharks.
South: Bristol Flyers, Leicester Riders, London Lions, Plymouth City Patriots, Surrey Scorchers.
Women
North: Caledonia Gladiators, Durham Palatinates, Manchester Giants, Seriös Group Newcastle Eagles, B. Braun Sheffield Hatters.
South: Cardiff Met Archers, Essex Rebels, Leicester Riders, London Lions, Nottingham Wildcats, Oaklands Wolves.
How to vote
Visit britishbasketballleague.com/all-star-vote-2024 to vote for your Men’s starting fives, and visit wbbl.org.uk/all-star-vote-2024 to vote for your Women’s starting fives.
