The only thing more surprising than DeMarcus talking about a contract extension with the Kings, was the updated version of the updated All-Star voting results. This year, while the fans only account for half of the votes, it has not stopped the eyebrows from being raised. In the East, the Cavs are showing just how loved they are, with Irving, LeBron, and Love all being in the top 5 in their respective. Giannis seems to be blossoming as well, being second in Frontcourt voting.
In the West, the Warriors, again, are being heavily favored. Curry leads the way, followed by Kevin Durant, and… wait for it… Zaza Pachulia. That’s right, he’s STILL up there. AS far as Westbrook and Harden? They are right behind Steph, even though they’ve been outplaying just about everyone this year.
This is who would be starting right now, if the All-Star game started today:
