For the 6th time in Jayson Tatum’s career, he has been named an NBA All-Star for the mid-season classic in San Francisco. This is the 5th time Tatum will be starting the game.
He joins the Knicks’ Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, Donovan Mitchell of the East-leading Cavaliers, and MVP candidate Giannis Antetokounmpo. Out West, it’s veterans Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James alongside MVP frontrunners Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokic.
Tatum’s first All-Star Game appearance came in the 2019-20 season and he has been an All-Star every year since. Tatum was also named as the All-Star Game MVP in the 2022-23 season, after scoring a record 55 points.
