Milwaukee, WI – Giannis Antetokounmpo is running away with the early fan voting for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game, set to be held in San Francisco on February 16th. The Milwaukee Bucks superstar has amassed a commanding lead, garnering 1,710,630 votes as of January 2nd. Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic trails in second place with a respectable 1,422,121 votes, but a significant gap separates him from Antetokounmpo.

Several other prominent stars have also surpassed the one million vote mark, including Jayson Tatum (Boston Celtics), Kevin Durant (Phoenix Suns), LeBron James (Los Angeles Lakers), Karl-Anthony Towns (New York Knicks), and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma City Thunder).
While fan voting accounts for only 50% of the final tally to determine the All-Star starters, Antetokounmpo’s impressive early lead suggests he is a virtual lock for a starting spot. Player and media voting will make up the remaining 25% each.
