The 2019 NBA All-Star Game is upon us, and the leaders from both conferences have recently drafted their teammates. But before LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo made their choices, several players tried to make their cases through—we can’t make this up—Tinder profiles.
In a bid to convince the captains of Team LeBron and Team Giannis, All-Star candidates like Steph Curry, James Harden, Anthony Davis, and Ben Simmons, had some selfies paired with Tinder captions and profiles. The following were posted by theScore on their Facebook page.
Kawhi Leonard
Who could forget that “laugh” from media day? LMAO.
Russell Westbrook
The “Mr. Steal Your Rebound” caption had us rolling on the floor.
Dirk Nowitzki
Well, he really is that old.
Anthony Davis
Well, AD might not just be LeBron’s teammate in the All-Star game soon.
Kevin Durant
Is he really moving to NYC?!
Kyrie Irving
We’re sorry, Kyrie, but you talk too much.
James Harden
Probably the only accurate thing on here.
Steph Curry
Well, he’s not wrong. He’ll probably give you a three-peat, too.
Ben Simmons
Playing in the rookie games as a 3rd-year player isn’t really helping his case.
Khris Middleton
This just makes us really sad for Khris.
