LeBron James looks to be in a good position to be a captain for the third straight NBA All-Star Game, as he has seen his lead expand over the rest of the competition in the latest returns from the fan voting for the 2020 NBA All-Star Game in Chicago.
James now has a lead of over 149k votes, up from 82k in last week’s returns, over Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic, who currently has 4.59 million votes to LeBron’s 4.74. But as has been the case throughout the All-Star voting, LeBron is joined on the list with plenty of his Lakers teammates.
Anthony Davis looks even more like a lock to start in the game, coming in second behind LeBron James with 4.4 million votes. Dwight Howard is also still in the top-10 in frontcourt voting, pulling in 670k votes. But Howard’s votes still don’t rival that of the “GOAT,” Alex Caruso, who brought in 894k votes, enough to pull him up to fourth amongst guards, only 100k votes behind Portland’s Damian Lillard in third.
In the Eastern Conference, Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo looks like a lock to be the captain for the East with over 4.4 million votes.
