The annual 2015 LKL All-Star Game, was held on March 29, in Vilnius. The format was different from the previous contests: one team – Amžini Priešininkai – consisted of the best players from the two rivaling teams of Žalgiris and Lietuvos rytas, and the other team – LKL Žvaigždės – consisted of the best players from the rest of the LKL teams.

Teams

** Former Žalgiris and Lietuvos rytas members, Grigorij Khizhnyak and Andrius Šležas, respectively, appeared in the game, as a surprise to the spectators. While a member of Žalgiris, Khizhnyak led the EuroLeague in blocks per game, and otherwise led the team in points and rebounds. Šležas represented Lietuvos rytas for 9 seasons, and was known for his three point shooting abilities. For the "LKL Žvaigždės" team, the two late additions were Mindaugas Žukauskas and Martynas Paliukėnas. Žukauskas, who was a longtime Šiauliai player, established himself as an excellent defender, and a regular Lithuanian national team member. Paliukėnas, is a current member of Dzūkija.
