The National Basketball Association (NBA) and Verizon tipped off NBA All-Star Voting 2016 last week, giving hoops fans everywhere the opportunity to vote for their favorite players into NBA All-Star 2016 in Toronto. All Grizzlies players are eligible for All-Star voting, including guard Mike Conley and two-time NBA All-Star and last year’s Western Conference starting center, Marc Gasol.

New to the voting program this year, NBA fans are now able to cast their Grizzlies votes directly through Google Search on their desktop, tablet and mobile devices.  They can also vote on NBA.com, through the NBA App (available on Android and iOS), SMS text and social media networks including Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Fans can also post the official Grizzlies’ All-Star voting graphic and use the hashtag #NBAVOTE and the players’ first and last names on their favorite social site or Google search. (See attachment).

All current NBA players are available for selection.  Fans can select up to two guards and three frontcourt players from each conference when choosing starters via NBA.com or the NBA App.

Voting will conclude on Monday, Jan. 18, 2016 at 11:59:59 p.m. ET.  Starters will be announced live on TNT on Thursday, Jan. 21, during a special one-hour edition of TNT NBA Tip-Off presented by Autotrader.com at 6 p.m. CST, featuring Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, and Kenny Smith.  The special will air prior to TNT’s exclusive doubleheader featuring the L.A. Clippers at the Cleveland Cavaliers (7 p.m. CST) and the San Antonio Spurs at the Phoenix Suns (9:30 p.m. CST).
