You know the NBA season has truly begun once the All-Stars are announced.
The NBA All-Star captains and starters were announced tonight on TNT before the tip-off of Raptors-Bucks as the All-Star Game approaches on March 7th in Atlanta.
Adam Silver and the NBA have received major pushback on the idea, with several superstar players publicly questioning if having the All-Star Game is the right thing to do amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Silver spoke to those concerns today on ESPN’s The Jump.
