The NBA revealed the results of the LeBron James/Steph Curry All-Star Game draft Thursday night, live on TNT, and the rosters do not disappoint.
LeBron, despite what many might have expected, drafted former teammate Kyrie Irving. He’ll also have Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, and DeMarcus Cousins to round out his starting lineup.
As for Curry, James Harden and Giannis Antetokounmpo headline the rest of his starting lineup. They’ll start alongside Joel Embiid and DeMar DeRozan.
