The 2015 NBA All-Star game will have a reasonably diverse representation in terms of sneaker brands on the floor.
Nike has the clear majority with 18 players of the 26 total All-Stars, six of which are Jordan Brand athletes. In second place is adidas with six athletes, although its presence in the game is hurt somewhat by the absence of the brand's biggest signature star, Derrick Rose. Under Amour and Li-Ning will each contribute one All-Star in Steph Curry and Dwyane Wade, respectively.
Registering as an asterisk of sorts of Klay Thompson, who is reportedly leaving Nike for Anta this week.
