From 1951 to 2017, 66 All-Star Games were held under the old system. The record shows 37 wins for the Eastern Conference and 29 wins for the Western Conference.
The 2010 NBA All-Star Game was held on February 14, 2010 in Arlington (in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area) at Cowboys Stadium, the home of the Dallas Cowboys NFL team. A new attendance record of 108,713 was set for the game.
One of the things that happened in the 2017 NBA All-Star Game was a new record for total points scored. East and West scored a combined 374 points (182:192) in the game. This surpassed the previous year's record of 369 points (196:173).
The record for points scored by a player in an NBA All-Star Game was set by Anthony Davis (New Orleans Pelicans). He scored a total of 52 points in the 2017 NBA All-Star Game. The previous record holder was Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia Warriors), who scored 42 points in the 1962 NBA All-Star Game.

For the 2018 All-Star Game, the league changed the mode of the game. It no longer pits the Western Conference against the Eastern Conference. In the new mode, fans choose two team captains who alternate players for two mixed teams in a pick-up game style.
For the 2020 All-Star Game, the NBA introduced a new game mode in late January of that year to increase the competitive nature of the game and keep the excitement throughout. The first three quarters of 12 minutes each start at 0-0 and are played one at a time. In the last quarter the game clock is switched off. A score is calculated from the points scored previously. To this number, in honor of Kobe Bryant, 24 (Bryant's jersey number) points are added. This gives the goal score. The team that reaches this score first wins the All-Star Game. The two teams play for charities in the venue. The winners of a quarter receive $100,000 for an organization of their choice. If a quarter ends in a tie, the amount is additionally distributed in the next quarter. The winning team receives 200,000 US dollars for the good cause.
