OAKLAND — The game is still roughly four months off, but Warriors guard Stephen Curry already sounds like he’s preparing mentally for what he might do if he is selected as one of the new all-important captains for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles.
In a compelling revamping of the All-Star selection process, fans, players and media will still vote for 10 starters and coaches will pick the 14 reserves, but the 24 players will go into a pool, and the leading vote-getters from each conference will become captains that select 12-man squads from the complete pool.
