Draft Wwe Game

2021 NFL Draft: Western Michigan two-way standout D'Wayne Eskridge's game more than just speed The former Bronco boosted his draft stock in the last year By Josh Edwards. The 2021 NBA All-Star Draft takes place Thursday night (8 p.m. ET) on TNT, with LeBron James and Kevin Durant choosing their respective rosters. James is quite used to being a captain at this point.

The 2021 NBA All-Star Game will be played Sunday in Atlanta. But because of COVID-19, a weekend's worth of events will be compressed into a single night -- the skills challenge and 3-point contest will take place pregame, while the dunk contest will act as the halftime show.

All-Star voting began on Jan. 28, and All-Star starters -- determined through fan voting (which accounts for 50% of the vote), media voting (25%) and player voting (25%) -- were announced Jan. 18 on TNT. The reserves -- which are voted on by the NBA's coaches -- were announced Tuesday on TNT.

After its thrilling debut in last season's All-Star Game in Chicago, the 'Elam Ending' will return. So will captains, with the Brooklyn Nets' Kevin Durant and Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James -- the top fan vote-getters in their respective conferences -- making their selections Thursday for the showdown at State Farm Arena.

Here is everything you need to know, including the pick-by-pick breakdown.
