This was the first NBA All-Star Game held in Philadelphia and the only one hosted by the Philadelphia Warriors, which would move to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1962; consequently, all subsequent All-Star games in Philadelphia have been hosted by the Philadelphia 76ers, which relocated to the city from Syracuse, New York in 1963. The coaches were the Boston Celtics' Red Auerbach for the East and the St. Louis Hawks' Ed Macauley for the West. Both earned the selections because their respective teams led their divisions prior to the game; this marked the second consecutive year that Auerbach and Macauley served as All-Star Game head coaches. The East won the game 125–115. The hometown team's Wilt Chamberlain, who made his All-Star debut, was named the Most Valuable Player after logging 23 points and 25 rebounds.
