Western Conference Player to Watch: Kobe Bryant

The 13-time All-Star and reigning All-Star Game MVP is chucking up a high volume of shots with the Los Angeles Lakers this season.

It remains to be seen if he has the audacity to do that with four other superstars on the court with him.

Kobe put up 37 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in a 148-143 win over the East on his home court in L.A. last year.

Eastern Conference Player to Watch: LeBron James

The Heat superstar has not scored less than 20 points in an All-Star game since his second year in the league and first year he was voted into the game.

He’s always a force and fun to watch—especially in a game with low stakes and no defense.

Prediction

East 156 – West 152
