The HEBA Greek All-Star Game, also known as the EKO Greek All-Star Game for sponsorship reasons, is the All-Star Game of the Hellenic Basketball Association (HEBA) (Greek: ΕΣΑΚΕ) professional men's basketball competition. The HEBA Greek all-star game includes players that currently play in HEBA's top-tier level Greek Basketball League (GBL). The HEBA Greek all-star game was originally founded and organized by Gus Sarianides.

Format

edit

The HEBA Greek men's all-star game has most often been played in a format featuring the Greek All-Stars, versus the Rest of the World All-Stars, although it has also included several other format variations over the years. Only players that play in Greece's first-tier level Greek Basketball League (GBL) are eligible to become official HEBA Greek all-star selections. There is also a men's slam dunk competition, and a men's 3-point shootout competition. Players from lower level divisions are eligible to compete in both the all-star weekend's slam dunk and 3-point shootout contests.

The Greek all-star weekend also features a game between under age 22 players and senior age players (players that are retired professionals), called the Rising Stars versus the All-Time Stars. There are also youth 3-point shootout and youth slam dunk competitions, for the age 22 and under players. In the past, the Greek all-star weekend also featured an age 20 and under all-star game, called the Hopes or Youth All-Star Game.

History

edit

The HEBA Greek All-Star Game was held for the first time on December 31, 1991, and in that first game, "The Rest of the World All-Stars" defeated "The Greek All-Stars", by a score of 133–122. Over the next seven all-star games, the format was "The European All-Stars" versus "The American All-Stars". From 2001 until 2019, the format was the same as the original all-star game was, The Greek All-Stars versus The Rest of the World All-Stars. Since 2001, the Greek All-Star Game has been held in various cities in Greece, which is in contrast to the early years of the all-star game, when most of the games were held at either the Peace and Friendship Stadium, or Nikos Galis Olympic Indoor Hall arenas in Athens.

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thanasis Antetokounmpo were not voted onto the 2013 Greek League All-Star Game by the fans, nor were they selected to the game by the league's head coaches. However, Giannis' older brother, Thanasis, did compete in the 2013 Greek League Slam Dunk Contest, which took place at the same venue, and on the same day as, the league's All-Star Game. Giannis Antetokounmpo was also at the All-Star event, as he was assisting his older brother Thanasis, with some of his slam dunk contest dunk attempts. Since both of the Antetokounmpo brothers were already in attendance at the event, the All-Star Game's head coaches decided to allow them to both play in the All-Star Game, as a treat for the fans that were in attendance. However, despite the fact that both Antetokounmpo brothers played in the All-Star Game, they were not actually credited with being league All-Stars. At the time, neither of them played in Greece's First Division Greek Basket League, and instead both played in Greece's Second Division Greek A2 Basket League. The HEBA Greek All-Star Game is the all-star game of Greece's first division league, and therefore only players that play in the first division league are eligible to be all-star players of the league.
