Thursday night NBA fans were still assessing the trade deadline deals and in the case of the OKC Thunder lack of moves. Also making news was LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo selecting their All-Star teams in the schoolyard like pick-em.
To no one’s surprise, LeBron picked his teammate Anthony Davis as the first selection while Giannis picked Joel Embiid first citing his ability to guard Anthony Davis.
As for the full list of 10 starters here’s where they landed:
Team LeBron:
- Anthony Davis (Lakers)
- Kawhi Leonard (Clippers)
- Luka Doncic (Mavericks)
- James Harden (Rockets)
Team Giannis:
- Joel Embiid (76ers)
- Pascal Siakam (Raptors
- Kemba Walker (Celtics)
- Trae Young (Hawks)
The reserves were then selected with Giannis making the first pick and once again his hands were tied because both Antetokounmpo and James had to pick their teammates.
