The LNB All-Star Game is the annual All-Star Game that is organised by France's professional club basketball governing body, the LNB. The LNB organizes both of the top two French men's pro club competitions, the top-level LNB Pro A, and the second-level LNB Pro B. The event was first held in 1987, and is loosely based on the NBA All-Star Game.
History From 1987 through 1991, the LNB All-Star Game was played under a "East" versus "West" format. Since 1992, the game is played under a French players versus foreign players (non-French players) format.
