Team LeBron and Team Steph were finally revealed tonight, but not in the way NBA fans were hoping for.

In the debut years of its new format, the All-Star game sees two captains choose from a pool of players for the sides, irrespective of their conference affiliation.

Interestingly James picked Kevin Durant while also chose former Cleveland Cavaliers team-mate Kyrie Irving.

And the four-time MVP has admitted the players were wrong to push back the decision to televise the draft.

“This thing should have been televised,” James told NBA on TNT.

“When me and Steph were doing the Draft, we started laughing very hard at one point, I’m not going to tell you what part it was but we started laughing hard at one point.

“It should have been televised for sure.

“We didn’t think this out all the way through, the fans should have been a part of this for sure but it’s the first year and I think it’s going to be pretty cool going into the future.”

And Steph Curry backed up his statement, saying he hopes next year's edition will be shown live on TV.

“We did have a good time and as this format, hopefully we’re both the captains for next year and we can broadcast it to the world in real time.

“But it was cool to do this behind closed door with me and Bron talking, just going through these names, it was crazy.”
