LeBron James drafted first for new-look NBA All-Star Game

LeBron James was the first pick of the new-look 2025 NBA All-Star draft Thursday night and was soon joined by a now-former teammate -- Anthony Davis.

James and Davis were among the big names taken by Shaquille O'Neal as the "Inside the NBA" crew selected three of the four All-Star teams on TNT. Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Jayson Tatum also will be part of a veteran Team Shaq squad filled with championship pedigree.

Charles Barkley's team is filled with international stars, including former MVPs Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo, current MVP favorite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and San Antonio Spurs phenom Victor Wembanyama.
