Report: Full NBA All-Star rosters released originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington
With the starters announced last week, the NBA released the remaining 14 players who will participate in the All-Star game on March 7 in Atlanta.
The starters, headlined by LeBron James and Kevin Durant as the captains of each side, should make for an entertaining game from start to finish. The NBA is sticking with the draft format and will continue using the "Elam Ending" in the fourth quarter, which made the game incredibly fun a year ago.
