The brand new All-Star game format allows the top vote recipients for each conference to choose their own team of players. This dangerous option was coined in an attempt for the All-Star game to be more exciting. Rightfully so, things might be heading that way after Stephen Curry declared that he may pick Giannis Antetokounmpo on his team so that he won't get dunked on again, according to Anthony Slater of the Athletic.
Is there a random guy beyond LeBron or your teammates you'd like to have on your team? Steph Curry: “Giannis. He dunked on me last year. May have to get him on my team so that doesn't happen again”
Curry has been named a team captain after capturing the most All-Star votes in the Western Conference. He is already considered to be the best shooter of all time, so any team that features the superstar point guard will be dangerous enough. However, with the Greek Freak on his team, the combination may just be unstoppable. Of course, Curry might have been joking, or giving props to the Bucks star for his major dunk in the last All-Star game. Still, it is a possibility for Curry to select Antetokounmpo and form a dangerous team.
Imagine Curry launching threes from all over the place in a friendly game against his peers, while Antetokounmpo dunks on all of his opponents. It's definitely something that LeBron James doesn't want to hear. No one knows for certain who Curry is going to choose, but his team is apparently going to be stacked after this comment.
