The second round of voting for the 2023 NBA All-Star Game was released on Thursday morning. Once again, a pair of Philadelphia 76ers factor in prominently.
Joel Embiid dropped to fourth among the front court options, now behind Jayson Tatum. After the initial returns, Embiid narrowly led Tatum for the third spot. Embiid (3,248,733 votes) trails Tatum (3,281,124) by a little more than 32,000 votes.
Meanwhile, James Harden (1,571,039 votes) is holding steady in third among the guards. Jaylen (1,512,332) isn’t far behind, however. Kyrie Irving (3,024,833) and Donovan Mitchell (2,725,558) continue to dominate the top two.
