As the excitement builds for the NBA All-Star 2025, Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo and Denver Nuggets' sensational center Nikola Jokić continue to command the spotlight in the latest fan returns for the All-Star Voting.
With just days left until voting closes on Monday, January 20 at 11:59 p.m. ET, fans have a limited window to make their voices heard. The next two days, January 17 and January 20, feature the coveted "3-for-1 Days."

The thrilling announcement revealing the starters for the eagerly awaited NBA All-Star Game will occur on Thursday, January 23, at 7 p.m. ET via TNT. It’s noteworthy that NBA ID members account for a whopping 50% of the vote, while current NBA players and a media panel contribute 25% each. That means fans truly hold the power in shaping the All-Star lineup!
In the Eastern Conference frontcourt, Giannis maintains his lead, followed closely by Boston Celtics' Jayson Tatum in second and New York Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns in third. Among the guards in the East, Charlotte Hornets’ LaMelo Ball and Cleveland Cavaliers’ Donovan Mitchell are taking the lead in their respective positions.
Switching to the Western Conference, Jokić remains at the top of the frontcourt votes, followed by Los Angeles Lakers legend LeBron James and Phoenix Suns' Kevin Durant. LeBron has gained momentum, leapfrogging Durant by an impressive 92,444 votes! In updates on the guards, Oklahoma City Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leads, with Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry hot on his heels.
