Milwaukee Bucks star Janis Adetokunbo and NBA legend LeBron James have already received over 3 million votes in a fan vote for the NBA’s exhibition all-star game. However, there are still seven days left to vote and the positions could still change.
73. the annual all-star game
The 73rd annual All-Star Game will take place on February 18 in Indianapolis. This traditional huge event will reach NBA fans in more than 200 countries and will be broadcast in 50 languages. This time, fans vote via the NBA app or the NBA website.
So far, Adetokunbo and James
Two players have received the most votes from fans so far. LeBron James reigns supreme in the Western Conference and Janis Adetokunbo reigns supreme in the Eastern Conference. Both of them have crossed the three million vote mark so far. Then there are a couple of NBA stalwarts who have broken at least the two million mark.
In the Western Conference, Nikola Jokic (Denver), Kevin Durant (Phoenix), Luka Doncic (Dallas) and Stephen Curry (Golden State) have crossed that mark. In the Eastern Conference, Joel Embiid (Philadelphia), Jason Tatum (Boston) and this season’s big discovery Tyrese Haliburton (Indiana) have all crossed that threshold.
The polls show that James Harden is not as popular with the fans as he was in previous seasons. He has received just over 600,000 votes so far.
NBA All-Star Game records
Of course, this exhibition all-star game also has its own records. For example, Bob Pettit and the tragically deceased Kobe Bryant were the most frequent MVP of this game, both being voted 4 times the best player of the game. Lebron James has played the most of these duels (19) and has also scored the most points (426).
Voting system
Voting opened on Tuesday, December 19, 2023 and closes on January 20, 2024. During the voting period, fans can submit one ballot via NBA ID with five names of current players. Additionally, there are special days where their votes will be multiplied 3 times in six days. Those days are Monday, January 1, Friday, January 5, Friday, January 12 and Friday, January 19. So there is still a week left which can still shake up the opening line-up.
This show always produces a large number of wonderful individual events with great scoring. Since defense is not a factor in this game. It should be noted there could be a 50-point performance in this match again.
The record is held so far by Jason Tatum of the Boston Celtics. He scored 55 points in 2023. A year earlier, Stephen Curry scored 50 points. In addition, so far everything suggests that Lebron James in his 21st season in the NBA will hit already 20 duel stars.
