The NBA named the All-Star Game starters Thursday with the Lakers’ Lebron James chosen for the 18th straight time and returning as Western Conference captain.

Making their All-Star debuts are Golden State’s Andrew Wiggins and Memphis’ JA Morant. The other Western Conference starters are Denver’s Nikola Jokic and Golden State’s Stephen Curry.

The Eastern Conference starters are Brooklyn’s Kevin Durant, Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo, Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid, Atlanta’s Trae Young and Chicago’s Demar Derozan.

Durant will be the Eastern Conference captain as he, like James, had the most votes in his conference.
