The stage is set for the NBA All-Star Game Sunday, March 7. Team Durant will be an All-Nets affair.
Kevin Durant, who represented Team Durant and remained captain despite not playing in the All-Star game due to his lingering left hamstring strain, played general manager as he selected his team. The Nets superstar finished first in Eastern Conference voting and second behind Lebron James overall.
James, who represented Team LeBron, selected the first pick (and Giannis Antetokounmpo). The Nets superstar admitted prior to the draft he did not do any preparation as he based his picks based off prior competitive play.
