- Guard (G): Jalen Brunson, Knicks
- Guard (G): Tyrese Haliburton, Pacers
- Forward (F): Jayson Tatum, Celtics
- Forward (F): Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks
- Center (C): Joel Embiid, 76ers
What Remains Consistent:
The frontcourt competition in the Eastern Conference remains formidable with Joel Embiid and Giannis Antetokounmpo leading the pack. Jayson Tatum although not matching the same MVP-caliber performance has been a pivotal player for the league-leading Celtics. Tyrese Haliburton continues to excel guiding the NBA’s top-ranked offense while leading in assists.
Noteworthy Changes:
Jalen Brunson previously overlooked emerges as a standout candidate. His exceptional scoring in December, averaging nearly 30 points per game with impressive shooting percentage makes him a force to be reckoned with. Brunson’s evolution as a three-point shooter adds a new dimension to his game ranking among the league’s best in off-the-dribble three-point shooting.
Updated Western Conference All-Star Starters Prediction:
- Guard (G): Luka Doncic, Mavericks
- Guard (G): Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Thunder
- Forward (F): LeBron James, Lakers
- Forward (F): Kawhi Leonard, Clippers
- Center (C): Nikola Jokic, Nuggets
What Remains Consistent:
Luka Doncic and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander maintain their stronghold in the Western Conference backcourt. Despite challenges faced by the Lakers LeBron James continues to showcase unparalleled skills. Nikola Jokic with nightly performances nearing a 30-point triple-double remains a frontrunner for a third MVP award.
Noteworthy Changes:
Kawhi Leonard’s resurgence is a pivotal shift. Over the last 12 games Leonard has demonstrated his all-around excellence contributing significantly to the Clippers’ resurgence. His scoring efficiency, availability and impact make him a key contender for a starting spot edging out competitors like Kevin Durant.
Honorable Mentions:
Eastern Conference: Damian Lillard (Bucks), Tyrese Maxey (76ers), Donovan Mitchell (Cavaliers) and Trae Young (Hawks)
