NBA All-Star Weekend is always a time of debate, and this year's event in Salt Lake City on Feb. 17-19 will be no exception.
With only 24 roster spots in the event and 10 starters, there will be an array of stars on the court, but some talented and well-respected players are bound to miss out altogether.
The usual All-Stars are indisputable, with LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic leading the way year after year and several rising stars racking up fan votes. But this year's selections also came with some stunning surprises.
