The usual slate of names topped the second round of All-Star voting results released on Thursday.
LeBron James and Kevin Durant led all players with over 4,000,000 votes apiece, while Giannis Antetokounmpo and Steph Curry appeared near the top of their respective conference leaderboards. But there were a couple of curious names who crashed the All-Star party.
Lakers guard Alex Caruso checked in at No. 10 in the voting among Western Conference guards on Thursday. Los Angeles's backup guard has become a fan favorite in recent seasons, though he doesn't exactly sport the statistical profile of a typical All-Star.
