Jaylen Brown was announced Thursday as one of the seven All-Star reserves from the Eastern Conference. It was the third straight All-Star nod and fourth in the last five years for Brown, who will join East starter Jayson Tatum at the midseason showcase in San Francisco on Feb. 16.

Jayson Tatum has been named as an Eastern Conference All-Star starter for the 2025 All-Star game. The Boston Celtics star will be making his fifth consecutive All-Star appearance and his sixth overall.
