All Star
2015 NBA All-Star Starters Announced
The 2015 NBA All-Star starters have been announced.
Starting for the Eastern Conference team will be John Wall (Washington), Kyle Lowry (Toronto), LeBron James (Cleveland), Carmelo Anthony (New York) and Pau Gasol (Chicago).
Starting for the Western Conference team will be Stephen Curry (Golden State), Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles), Blake Griffin (Los Angeles), Anthony Davis (New Orleans) and Marc Gasol (Memphis).
These players were selected based on fan voting. Kobe Bryant is currently injured, so it’s possible that an injury replacement (selected by Adam Silver) will have to take his spot on the Western Conference roster and then the team’s head coach Steve Kerr would select who starts in his place.
How will Kobe Bryant’s injury affect the All-Star Game and his career? Find out here.
