Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo is the early leader in fan balloting for the NBA All-Star Game, and LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers seems well on his way toward extending his record and getting picked for a 21st time.

LeBron James and Stephen Curry share the national spotlight as the Los Angeles Lakers play the Golden State Warriors on Christmas. Before the game, the Lakers superstar pulled off a playful prank on his longtime Warriors rival. James snuck up on Curry while the Golden State guard was warming up and hilariously pretended to block his shot.

Basketball podcaster and media mogul Bill Simmons has seen the faces of basketball since the 2010s and believes LeBron James and Stephen Curry are both part of the problem and solution.
