I think team captains just choose the reserves
Fans choose starters
Captains choose reserves

Oh, so someone will choose Luka between Lebron and Giannis. Interesting. Are their selections public? Can't recall.

Fans count for 50% toward starters, 25% players, 25% media. It's the reason Luka wasn't chosen last year. If it were only fan votes, he would have gotten in last year. Changed in 2017.

Yes, their drafting is broadcasted. Last year was all the tampering trollling from LeBron. Picked AD first and then every other FA

Yep, the right ankle...
@townbrad: Luka turned his right ankle in practice
@townbrad: Barea says Luka’s injury occurred near the end of practice. Barea talking as if Mavs will have to play Rockets w/o Doncic, but Carlisle said no determination has been made. Mavs scheduled to leave for Houston at 3.

Wouldn’t get your hopes up if he is having an MRI.

Luke Doncic left Thursday’s Dallas Mavericks practice after rolling his right ankle.
It’s the same ankle he injured in December that forced him to miss four games.
“Don’t know the status,” head coach Rick Carlisle told reporters.
The New York Times’ Marc Stein reports that Doncic will undergo an MRI on Friday. The Mavericks’ next scheduled game is Friday night against the Houston Rockets.

He's learning from Dirk-- every time you have an ankle sprain, more adamantium soaks into the joint until you are invincible. Miss less time, less likely to sprain it again.
Just wait until his final form when he's so strong he can embed the teeth of his opponents into his own bones.

@espn_macmahon: A source describes Luka Doncic's right ankle injury as similar to the one he suffered earlier this season. Doncic missed four games and returned to practice 11 days later after his previous ankle sprain.

Luka made the Rising Stars game. Would he even play? Let some other scrub play. He’s got an All Star game to play in.

Agree, but Team World is gonna get mopped if Luka doesn't play, which is probably why they included him.

As good as Luka is, they get mopped either way.

True, but at least they'll score some style points with Luka on the floor -- otherwise they'd be unwatchable.

@townbrad: I'm told that MRI on Doncic revealed the Mavericks' hoped-for best-case scenario: A moderate sprain, similar to the one he suffered in mid-December, causing him to miss four games. One source estimates this time, "two weeks, give or take."

Well, it doesn't hurt if they are actually wanted and pursued without all the hand-wringing and gnashing of teeth over "FIT!"
Edit: This is just my impression from the outside looking in.

Lol, yeah -- lotto teams can't afford to worry about fit.

I get it, tbh.
They're great, but they're YOUNG. Young players don't win. I mean, WE think that they'll be ready to win sooner than a less amazing (but still championship caliber) duo would be, but they're not winning a championship this year or next.
That summer of 2021 really will be the Mavs' first and only chance to hit it big in free agency.
