The expected duel between the Eastern All-Stars vs the Western All-Stars is coming up, as the 2024 All-Star Weekend will be closing its edition with the highly anticipated match. LeBron James and Giannis Antetokuonmpo are the teams capitans and they could very likely steal the whole show.
Moreover, according to the experts, the two players are the main favorites to win the prestigious MVP award of an All-Star Game plagued, as the name suggests, by the best names of the current 2023/24 NBA season: Luka Doncic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Nikola Jokic, Tyrese Haliburton, Stephen Curry, Jayson Tatum, Anthony Edwards, Jaylen Brown, Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard (although he will play virtually nothing due to adductor discomfort), Devin Booker...

Among so many stars competing against each other for the MVP of the All-Star Game 2024, eight names stand out for the experts above the rest. The ranking, in descending order, is as follows:

Finally, remember that the 2023 All-Star MVP was Tatum, who's back in the conversation for winning it this year as well. In an All-Star Weekend where the Slam Dunk Contest title has been revalidated for Mac McClung and the Three-Point Shootout title for Damian Lillard, why couldn't the Celtics star do it?
