The NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award is an annual National Basketball Association (NBA) award given to the player(s) voted best of the annual All-Star Game.
The award was established in 1953 when NBA officials decided to designate an MVP for each year's game. The league also re-honored players from the previous two All-Star Games. Ed Macauley and Paul Arizin were selected as the 1951 and 1952 MVP winners respectively. The voting is conducted by a panel of media members, who cast their vote after the conclusion of the game. The player(s) with the most votes or ties for the most votes wins the award. Bob Pettit and Kobe Bryant (pictured) have each won the award four times, and are tied for the most All-Star Game MVP wins. No All-Star Game MVP was named in 1999 since the game was canceled due to the league's lockout. (Full list...)
