Who decides the replacements of the injured players in the NBA All-Star Game?

With the loss of Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid to injury, the NBA All-Star game loses one of its biggest players and one who is currently the league’s MVP. Of course, that’s not the only eye-opening change that we will see this year. There is also the matter of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry who won’t be in the starting lineup for the first time. Curry is an All-Star game regular and has even won the MVP for the game on occasion . In the 2021 edition, he scored 50 pts and scored the winning basket at the buzzer. We’ve also got to mention the injury to Julius Randle of the New York Knicks which will see him unable to take the floor in Indianapolis as well.
