Next year’s NBA All-Star Game will feature a “USA versus the World” format, NBA commissioner Adam Silver said on Wednesday.

The move comes after last February's revamped tournament-style format with celebrity-picked rosters was seen as a flop by players and drew relatively low US television ratings.

Asked on Fox Sports One about having a USA against the World format for the elite-level contest, the first word out of Silver's mouth was “Yes.”
