With the NBA All-Star break officially underway, many fans look forward to the revamped All-Star Game format that pins four separate teams against each other in a mini-tournament. Many players earned their first All-Star appearances this season, but the first-timers are headlined by San Antonio Spurs superstar Victor Wembanyama.

Victor Wembanyama has been a standout performer this season with the San Antonio Spurs, earning a well-deserved spot in the 2024-25 NBA All-Star Weekend. Ahead of the event, the center sent a clear message to his fellow NBA players.

Despite the loss, Wembanyama made history on the night when he rejected a reverse layup attempt by Al Horford. The NBA made a historic announcement on the 7-foot-3 center, as he has now registered a block in 85 consecutive games, the longest active streak in 30 years.
