Will Damian Lillard Start in the NBA All-Star Game?

The Portland Trail Blazers do not have much history with NBA All-Star starters. The franchise last had a player voted into the game’s starting lineup in 1994 (Clyde Drexler), although LaMarcus Aldridge did get an injury replacement starting nod a few years ago.

Current Blazers stalwart Damian Lillard might end that 27 year drought this season. Lillard currently sits comfortably in third in the fan voting for Western Conference guards:

Nets‘ Kevin Durant and Lakers‘ LeBron James lead the NBA’s first All-Star fan voting returns. Warriors’ Stephen Curry and Wizards’ Bradley Beal join Durant and James as leaders at positions.
