As expected, Kobe Bryant is the headliner for the West squad after picking up the most votes for All-Star starters. Stephen Curry will also start for the West, while teammates Draymond Green and Klay Thompson were named as reserves. Two Spurs made the cut as well, with Kawhi Leonard starting and LaMarcus Aldridge as a reserve. As expected, both Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook will also start. Damian Lillard, Blake Griffin and Dirk Nowitzki missed the cut out West.
In the East, only one Cavalier (LeBron James) made the team, with Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving missing out. Two Raptors (Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRozan) and two Heat players (Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade) made the team. The other seven players come from seven different teams. Kemba Walker, Pau Gasol and Reggie Jackson are the notable absences.
