Like every week, the NBA publishes its progress update on the fan vote for the 2025 All-Star Game. And this week, no change in the fan “holders” since Stephen Curry (Warriors) always accompanies Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Thunder) on the “backcourt” to the West.
On the “frontcourt”, it is Nikola Jokic (Nuggets) which still dominates the standings in the conference, ahead LeBron James (Lakers) while Kevin Durant (Suns) drops to third place. The Phoenix winger is even losing ground on Victor Wembanyama (Spurs), still fourth, but now less than 300,000 votes away. Even if it will be difficult to fill in just a few days…
Only a few days left to vote
In the East, Giannis Antetokounmpo (Bucks) is still well ahead in fan votes, ahead of Jayson Tatum (Celtics) et Karl-Anthony Towns (Knicks). On the “backcourt”, it’s still LaMelo Ball (Hornets) which is quite clearly in the lead, ahead Donovan Mitchell (Cavaliers).
As a reminder, voting will close on January 20 and players and media will then join fans and choose their own All-Stars. The selections will then be shuffled, with fans accounting for 50% of the vote, while current players and the media panel will weigh in at 25% each. The replacements will, for their part, be selected by the 30 coaches while the All-Star Game will take place in San Francisco on February 16.
This year, the all-star game will be transformed into a four-team tournament, just to bring a little competitiveness to a meeting that has become a contest of dunks and 3-pointers for years.
