The defending champion Warriors have dominated the headlines this
season with their record winning pace and they were rewarded by
sending three players to the NBA's showcase of stars on Feb. 14 in
Toronto.
In addition, Western conference coach Gregg Popovich also named
guards Chris Paul and James Harden along with big men DeMarcus
Cousins, Anthony Davis and LaMarcus Aldridge to his squad.
West starters Curry, Russell Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant
and Kawhi Leonard were voted in by the fans.
In the Eastern Conference, guards John Wall, Jimmy Butler and Isaiah
Thomas got the nod along with DeMar DeRozan and big men Andre
Drummond, Paul Millsap and Chris Bosh.
