4 contender teams still looking for the 15th player:

Rockets, Warriors, Magic and Raptors

*Celtics has 3 open roster but their saving it to avoid luxury tax, 3 roster spot will go to 3 two way players, Harper, Tonje and Shulgs
* Jazz, Nets and Kings probably won't sign their 15th player.



Rockets- need of PG
Warriors- need quick big man
Magic- need two way guard
Raptors- need natural PG or defensive center.

West Playoffs status
OKC, Nuggets, Lakers, Spurs, Rockets and Wolves are sure in the playoffs.


Giving a white flag:
MAVS will not Kyrie plays
KINGS without Sabonis and LaVine
JAZZ without JacksonJ and Kessler
GRIZZLIES trading their best player and sitting Morant
PELICANS without Murray and cannot catch up from the top 10 in the west

With Suns, Warriors, Clippers and Blazers still fighting for west playoff race could possibly play in playin tournament.

Suns having problem to keep all three (Booker, Dillon, Green) healthy
Warriors without Butler.
And also with aging players in the roster
Clippers waiting for Garland.
And trading Zubac is a big mistake
Blazers with the new improve Avdija, and without Dame.

I think Clippers and Suns sneaking into the playoffs. Warriors just cant catch a break. Poor Steph.

All-Star teams by voting results:


USA:
KAT
Durant/ LeBron/ Jalen Johnson
Cade/ Brown
Brunson/ Edwards/ Reaves
Curry/ Maxey/ Mitchell

World:
Jokic/ Sengun
Giannis/ Markkanen/ Siakam
Wemby/ Avdija/ Anunoby
SGA/ Jamal Murray
Doncic/ Giddey

I couldn't find any other international players on the newest voters' list, correct me if I missed one.

Team World seems to have the far superior starting lineup but team USA has better depth.

THoughts?

Wemby on the wing : )

20 Jan 2026 15:50:43
Kat plays fir DR isn't US.

My updated World team in Allstar 2026 game:

Starting: Luka, SGA, Giannis,Jokic, Wemby
Bench: Murray, Giddey and Sengun

*Im putting Kat Towns in USA team side
* Markannen and Siakam are in lower seed team, I dont think they will not be pick in this year Allstar game
*Franz W is injured and his return timeline will affect his chances

8 players per team is a terrible format for me. I believe they should’ve made it 12 vs 12 in World vs USA format. Too many international players deserve to be chosen.
