How many All-Star votes did each Memphis Grizzlies player receive?
No surprises here— four of the top-five vote-getters on the team are starters
Not much of a surprise here, the most votes went to players who play the most minutes for the Grizzlies.
Ja Morant received more than 3.5 million votes, which is more than the rest of the Memphis Grizzlies received combined.
Jaren Jackson netted nearly 200k fan votes. His 22 player votes was enough for him to tie with teammate Steven Adams to finish 10th in the player voting.
Jackson and Adams finished behind: Brandon Ingram (9), Paul George (8), Karl-Anthony Towns (7), Deandre Ayton (6), Andrew Wiggins (5), Rudy Gobert (4), Draymond Green (3), Nikola Jokic (2) and LeBron James (1).
Steven Adams may have received a boost in votes from his fellow countrymen back home in New Zealand, but was validated with the 22 player votes. Or perhaps he had a nice boost in votes after we saw him literally pick up a Chicago Bulls player off his feet and whisk him away from an on-court scuffle with Ja Morant.
Desmond Bane has one of the sweetest shooting strokes in the NBA and one of the highest three-point shooting percentages. We might see him on Saturday night during NBA All-Star Weekend to compete in the 3-Point Contest.
