It was the 59th edition of the NBA All-Star Game, and was played at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The Eastern Conference defeated the Western Conference, 141–139. The East's Dwyane Wade, who recorded 28 points on 75% shooting, 11 assists, 6 rebounds and 5 steals, was named as the All-Star Game Most Valuable Player.

Coaches
right Stan Van Gundy pistons (cropped).jpg George Karl.jpg 300 Stan Van Gundy (left) and George Karl were selected as the East and West head coach, respectively.
The coaches for the All-Star Game are the head coaches of the teams with the best winning percentage in each conference through the games of January 31, two weeks before the All-Star Game. However, an NBA rule also prohibits a coach from being selected for consecutive All-Star Games. Because Phil Jackson and Mike Brown coached in the 2009 All-Star Game, they were not eligible for selection, even though their teams (respectively the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers) had the best winning percentages in their respective conferences at the January 31 cutoff date.
The coach for the Western Conference team was Denver Nuggets head coach George Karl. This is the fourth time Karl was selected to be an All-Star coach, after previous selections in 1994, 1996 and 1998.http://www.nba.com/2010/allstar/2010/01/29/west.coach/index.html Nuggets' Karl to coach West in 2010 All-Star Game Turner Sports Interactive, Inc NBA.com January 29, 2010 January 29, 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100201214045/http://www.nba.com/2010/allstar/2010/01/29/west.coach/index.html 2010-02-01 dead At January 31, the Nuggets had 32–15 record, the second best winning percentage in the Western Conference, behind Phil Jackson's Lakers.http://www.nba.com/games/20100131/DENSAS/gameinfo.html Martin steps up, Nuggets grab 103–89 win over Spurs Tim Price January 31, 2010 February 18, 2010 NBA.com Turner Sports Interactive, Inc https://web.archive.org/web/20100219234642/http://www.nba.com/games/20100131/DENSAS/gameinfo.html 19 February 2010 live The coach for the Eastern Conference team was Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy.
