NBA All-Star Game 2026: Team USA vs Team World

[shopson67]

What a likely world/international AS roster looks like before getting into questionable/undeserved players

Jokic
SGA
Giannis
Embiid (if healthy)
Luka
Wemby
Wagner
Sabonis
Sengun

After this we get into a lot of players that wouldn't make it in the traditional format stealing 3-4 spots

I don't watch anyway lol. The bigger question is can they fix the dunk contest...

There’s nothing to fix. Can’t force top players to participate

Can change up the premise. Raise the basket, put permanent obstacles in the way, etc. Make it more of a dunking HORSE contest.

Not the same. It is called All Star BREAK for a reason. It’s supposed to be intended as that after 4 months of basketball. Players are not trying to play a high intensity game when they are trying to recharge for the stretch run

I hope this is a failure as well

All star weekend is and should be about the fans, period.

Well it’s going to happen, if it doesn’t they can be known as the group of players that got all star weekend cancelled. I don’t see Giannis and crew doing anything but bringing it. If the USA guys want to look like pussies then so be it I guess.
