Milwaukee Bucks giant Giannis topped voting in the East, with 4.3m fan votes and the most votes from current National Basketball Association players, with 269. Here's a look at some of the most absurd names that received All-Star votes from their fellow players, starting with some you might recognize. James Harden, Steph Curry, Paul George and Kevin Durant round out the West's starters, with Kyrie Irving, Kawhi Leonard and Joel Embiid joining Giannis and the Hornets' own Kemba Walker in the East.

Harden finished first among Western Conference guards in voting by media, second by players, and third by fans.

For the second year in a row, Jordan Brand (not Nike) will be the official brand of the NBA All-Star uniforms. It's cool from a fan perspective that they have some of their favorite players, that no matter what they will always see them on that stage.

George won a tie-breaker for the West's third frontcourt starting spot over New Orleans' Anthony Davis, who finished third on the players' and media's ballots but fifth in the fan vote.

The 37-year-old Wade is averaging 13.8 points on 43 percent shooting, 3.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists in a bench role for the Heat this season. The Indiana Pacers' Victor Oladipo also had been a frontrunner before the devastating knee injury sustained Wednesday.
