Ah, yes. It’s that time of year again. We’ve finally got our first returns from the first round of fan voting for the NBA All-Star game and the results are just as weird as you’d expect.
No, sorry, this time there isn’t any Alex Caruso or Tacko Fall. There aren’t too many weird names that showed up on the board in the initial voting tally. The Lakers and Celtics probably aren’t doing well enough for all that.
But that doesn’t make this vote total we have so far any less wild. With so many teams being competitive in the NBA this year, a lot of really weird — but cool! — names are getting a lot of love.
There are also some that probably shouldn’t be here. But whatever! It’s still all fun. Here’s a quick look at what we have so far.
