After the strong emotions of saturdayit was the turn of all-star party on the weekend of NBA All-Star and it remained in the hands of Team Gianniswhich surpassed Team LeBron by 184-175.
Jayson Tatum was the most valuable player of the game, following break the points mark that belonged to Anthony Davis (52 in 2017): Boston Celtics forward finished with 55 points for the winner. In Team Giannis there was also 40 units of Donovan Mitchell.
The best of Team LeBron? Jaylen Brown with 35 points and so much Kyrie Irving as Joel Embiidboth with 32 points.
One of the particularities of the match was that neither of the two captains might finish the match. Giannis Antetokounmpo barely disputed the first 20 seconds, affected by a hand injury. While LeBron James (honored at halftime for his points record) saw action in the first half, but not the second, following hitting a hand with the hoop.

3rd quarter
Attention Lakers. Giannis left his team in the first seconds for his hand injury and now the same thing happens with LeBron James: will not play the second half, for the same type of injury.

Antetokounmpo had said that he would play despite the hand injury, but there was a trick: he played the first seconds, converted a double and immediately left the field. Team Giannis probably won’t have their captain all night.
Draft
This is how the teams were made up. Match time.
Team LeBron | Team Giannis | |
---|---|---|
LeBron James | Titular | Giannis Antetokounmpo |
Joel Embiid | Titular | Jayson Tatum |
Kyrie Irving | Titular | I Morant |
Luka Doncic | Titular | Donovan Mitchell |
Nikola Jokic | Titular | Lauri Markkanen |
Anthony Edwards | Alternate | Damian Lillard |
Jaylen Brown | Alternate | Jrue Holiday |
Paul George | Alternate | Shai Gilgeous-Alexander |
Tyrese Haliburton | Alternate | DeMar DeRozan |
Julius Randle | Alternate | Pascal I’m sorry |
De’Aaron Fox | Alternate | Bam Adebayo |
Years Jackson Jr. | Alternate | Domantas Sabonis |
It’s time for the headlines. The first chosen of Team LeBron is Joel Embiid. Giannis leaves with Jayson Tatum. The last? Nikola Jokic went with James and Lauri Markkanen with Antetokounmpo.
Years Jackson Jr., the last pick among the reserves. He is going for Team LeBron, while Domantas Sabonis was the last for Team Giannis.
Blooper de Gianniswho selects I Morant as a reserve … despite the fact that the Memphis point guard is among the starters. Finally ended up changing it to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
The draft began to define the teams. You start with the reserves and the one chosen for Team Giannis (who confirmed that he will play the game) is Damian Lillard. For its part, Team LeBron stays with Anthony Edwards.
Half an hour before the start of the match, LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo will select their respective teams in a draft formatcompleting their sets with four other starters plus seven substitutes.
