Kapetana sovjih All Star ekip, LeBron James in Kevin Durant, ki sta s strani navijačev dobila največ glasov, sta izbrala svoje soigralce. Durant sicer zaradi poškodbe ne bo igral. James je kot svoj tretji izbor izbral Luko Dončića, ki bo tako kot lani ponovno v ekipi LeBron.

Reakcija Giannisa, ko je slišal, da v prvi peterki igra z LeBronom, Stephom, Luko in Jokićem:
