Our remaining incorrects are ace-hunters. Andre Drummond's name is swirling in trade rumors, and he stayed home for All Star Weekend.

Devin Booker's career is certainly on an upward trajectory, but he didn't make it this year.

Going for the legacy pick, Dwyane Wade is our next incorrect. I thought naming Kobe to the all star team last year was a travesty, there are so many good young players that it's not right to award spots to people who's play didn't earn it on the court that year (IMHO). Anyway, Wade actually has had a pretty good season so far, but he missed the All Star game this year.

Our final incorrect is LaMarcus Aldridge. The Spurs keep winning, and Aldridge is a useful piece, but it's tough to be a western conference all star.

This question's SHEEP answer was played by 6 entrants. Paul George looks all the way back from his gruesome broken leg, and it's great to see him doing what he does. Will he be traded to a contender? Stay tuned.

Our next most popular correct was played by 5 contestants. LeBron James, best player in the world, was just about the chalk-iest pick for this question, and he didn't disappoint, with yet another All Star campaign.

Our next most popular correct was played by 4 players. The MVP, and new record holder for most points in an All Star game, was the hometown hero Anthony Davis.

Next up we have a pair of 2-point corrects. James Harden is having an MVP-type season, in one of the more fascinating MVP races in recent memory.

Our other 2-point correct is John Wall. After a rough start, the Wizards have really turned around their season, and Wall is a big reason why.

Question 14 closes with a whopping 6 aces. DeMarcus Cousins is on the move, the Kings got fleeced, etc. But there's no question that Cousins can ball.

Kawhi Leonard is having another MVP season, and seems to be only getting better.

It seems like more people should have picked Kevin Durant to make the all star team. Props to Biesterfield for taking a fairly safe answer.

Our next ace is Durant's teammate, probably the 2nd best shooter in the league right now, Klay Thompson.

Yet another somewhat surprising ace is Russell Westbrook, who's also having an MVP-type year.

Kicking us off once again, it's our ol' pal trollface. He selected Tony Wroten, who doesn't show up in basketball reference for this season.

Our next most popular incorrect was played by 2 people. DeMarcus Cousins just got traded to New Orleans, and wins are hard for them to come by. He has a WS/48 of .166.
