In the first tally of fans’ All-Star Voting, the Nets now rejoined “Big Three” piled up three and a half million votes among them. Kevin Durant got the lion’s share with 2.4 million votes but Kyrie Irving wound up with 268,000 ... even though he didn’t play until Wednesday night.

James Harden, with 862,000, finished second among guards and 10th overall. Irving got more votes than Rudy Gobert, Damian Lillard and Donovan Mitchell among others, finishing 25th overall.
