The Los Angeles Clippers will send two of its superstars to the 2024 NBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis.

Paul George and Kawhi Leonard were named reserves on the Western Conference roster. Thursday's news marks George's ninth time making the cut, and Leonard's sixth time being named an All-Star.

George's All-Star selection marks a homecoming for the 33-year-old as he began and played his first seven seasons in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers. "PG-13" was named an all-star four times during his time with the Pacers and went toe-to-toe against LeBron James and the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference playoffs during the mid-2010s.

SUGGESTED: 


This will be Leonard's first all-star nod since 2021. He wrapped up the first half of the 2023-2024 season in a very impressive "peak" form, averaging just under 24 points per game on a .526 field goal percentage and 6.3 rebounds per game.

The All-Star game will return to its East vs. West format this year. The five starters for each conference were based on a combination of fan, media, and player votes with LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo leading the way. From there, the reserves are selected by the league's 30 head coaches, who are not permitted to vote on their players.
