Shai Gilgeous-Alexander remains at No. 4 in All-Star voting for Western Conference guards

The NBA released the second update on fan All-Star voting on Thursday, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander remains at No. 4 among Western Conference guards.

The top four are in the same order as the first update: Stephen Curry (3,901,808 votes), Luka Doncic (3,649,647 votes), Ja Morant (1,397,102 votes) and Gilgeous-Alexander (1,338,764).

Fan votes account for 50%. Players and media each account for 25% of the vote total. The five players — two guards and three frontcourt players — with the most votes in each conference will be named All-Star starters.

Gilgeous-Alexander trails Morant by 58,338 votes, a significantly larger gap than in the first release, which was 3,733 votes.

It looks increasingly likely Gilgeous-Alexander stays at No. 4. If that’s the case, his All-Star chances will rely on the 30 NBA head coaches voting him in as a reserve, which should happen.

In 37 games, Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 30.8 points on 50.1% shooting, 5.6 assists and 4.8 rebounds. The next fan voting update is Jan. 19.
