The NBA All-Star teams were announced on Thursday night, but who is on the Eastern Conference roster?

We’re about midway through the NBA season, which means it’s time to hear who has made the cut for this year’s All-Star team. Thursday night was when we found out who was going to be making the trip to the All-Star Game this year, but the Eastern Conference roster proved a little harder to predict than usual.

That being said, the usual suspects are all present, as LeBron James and company will be headed to Air Canada Centre next month to be a part of the NBA’s fluffiest weekend of the year. All-Star Weekend is all about the dunk contest, and even that has grown a little stale over the years. Nevertheless, the All-Star game being in an atmosphere as basketball crazy as Toronto will more than likely be a better draw than what we’ve seen in years past.

Here’s a look at the Eastern Conference All-Star team that will be headed to Toronto in a few weeks.

Dwyane Wade, Heat
Kyle Lowry, Raptors
LeBron James, Cavaliers
Paul George, Pacers
Carmelo Anthony, Knicks

The NBA All-Star Game is scheduled to take place on February 15th with the Dunk Contest festivities taking place on Valentine’s Day.
