The NHL and NFL All-Star games have both concluded with fun and exciting action on Sunday night and now it’s time to turn to the NBA’s All-Star game. The teams were announced just this past week with many of our favorites being honored for their work this season.
The Eastern Conference is led by LeBron James, but there are some huge names also starting. Quite literally, Giannis Antetokounmpo has a name as big as his game! Congrats to him on his first all-star selection. Other starters from the Eastern Conference include Kyrie Irving, DeMar DeRozan and Jimmy Butler. There is no true center starting for this squad.
The Western Conference is loaded and in our opinion is the heavy favorite in this one. Their starting lineup looks like this; Kawhi Leonard, Anthony Davis, James Harden, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant. Wow!
The reserves for the Eastern Conference are Kevin Love, Paul Millsap, Isaiah Thomas, Kemba Walker, Kyle Lowry, John Wall and Paul George while the other squad’s reserves are DeMarcus Cousins, Marc Gasol, Klay Thompson, DeAndre Jordan, Russell Westbrook, Draymond Green and Gordon Hayward.
