Sixers stars Joel Embiid, James Harden in top 5 in recent All-Star voting

Philadelphia 76ers stars Joel Embiid and James Harden are in the top 5 of the latest All-Star voting update.

The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the most talented teams in the league. They feature Joel Embiid and James Harden, two of the biggest stars in the NBA. As the All-Star game approaches, they will receive plenty of votes and consideration.

The NBA released the latest fan voting update for the 2023 All-Star game, which is set to be played on Feb. 19 in Salt Lake City, and Embiid and Harden are in the top five in voting.

Embiid is fourth in frontcourt voting in the Eastern Conference with 3,248,733 votes. He is behind Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics, Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks and Kevin Durant of the Brooklyn Nets.

Harden is third in backcourt voting in the East with 1,571,039 votes. He trails Donovan Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Nets star Kyrie Irving.

If Embiid and Harden are not voted in as starters, they will almost assuredly be selected to the team as reserves by the coaches and their peers.
