On Thursday afternoon, the league released the first results of 2023 NBA All-Star Game fan voting returns. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are among the top vote-getters in the first wave of returns, so it seems likely the Celtics will have at least that many All-Stars this season.
But the fan votes make up of only 50% of the total vote pool for All-Star starter selections. The media and players each contribute a quarter of the overall vote.
In the first wave of fan voting results that were released, Tatum and Brown are fourth in frontcourt and backcourt voting, respectively.
With this in mind, how many Celtics are likely to be starters in the 2023 All-Star Game?
On the most recent episode of the CLNS Media “Celtics Lab” podcast, the hosts and guest Michael Mulford of Bulls Wire and SI’s Dallas Basketball got into the early expectations for All-Star voting and their projected starters, as well as a look ahead to games against the Dallas Mavericks and Chicago Bulls.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear their views on potential Boston 2023 All-Star starters and what lies ahead this week for the Celtics.
