The NBA All-Star Game features the league's best players on one stage. Twenty of the 25 players on Team Lebron or Team Giannis in this year's game are former NCAA student-athletes.

In total, 17 different Division I institutions will be represented in the 2020 NBA All-Star Game. Kentucky boasts the most former players with three, while Duke has two. The ACC and SEC lead all conferences with four representatives, followed by the Big 12 and Big East with three. The tally includes Kemba Walker's tenure at UConn while in the Big East, Russell Westbrook at UCLA while in the Pac-10 (now the Pac-12) and Khris Middleton at Texas A&M while in the Big 12.
