The NBA All-Star Game tips off on Sunday night at the brand new Dallas Cowboys Stadium in “Big D.” Basketball’s brightest stars all come together in this fantastic spectacle between the best in the Eastern Conference and the best in the Western Conference. Bankroll Sports takes a moment to look at the odds for and predict the All-Star Game MVP, which is a job that has become a lot harder since last year’s winner and three-time All-Star Game MVP, G Kobe Bryant won’t be playing in the game. Last season’s co-MVP C Shaquille O’Neal didn’t make the Eastern Conference roster.<\/p>\n

\n

\"DirkThe Likely Suspect<\/span>: The MVP winner has been on the winning team’s roster in every year since 1990. With Bryant out of the lineup, the West is still favored, but only by a slender point. So if you’re looking at a Western Conference candidate to score you some extra coin in basketball betting action this weekend, take a look at Dallas F Dirk Nowitzki<\/strong>. Nowitzki is the pride and joy of the hometown team and will inevitably see plenty of court time in this exhibition. Last season, the German national player scored just eight points on 3\/5 shooting, and he’s never scored more than 13 points in an All-Star Game in his career. Still, Nowitzki is the third favorite on the board because this season, he’ll be the hometown hero, and you can find him at +650 at BetUS <\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"LeBronThe King of the Lone Star State<\/span>: It’s hard to deny the fact that Cleveland’s F LeBron James<\/strong> is the most talented and most dynamic player in the NBA. No one else can do some of the things that he can do on the court, and he proved it once again in last season’s All-Star Game when he played the most minutes for the Eastern Conference and scored 20 points on 8\/19 shooting. It’s pretty clear that James is probably going to take the most shots once again for an Eastern Conference roster that chalk full of pure shooters, which makes him the runaway favorite at just +250 at BetUS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"TimDon’t Forget About Us!<\/span>: Oklahoma City F Kevin Durant<\/strong> and San Antonio F Tim Duncan<\/strong> are at opposite stages of their careers at this point, but both have the ability to take over the All-Star Game. Expect both to see plenty of minutes, as both have ties to the Lone Star State. Durant is turning into one of the best low post players in the league. This will be the youngster’s first shot on the NBA’s biggest mid-season stage, a stage in which he should thrive on against some of the NBA’s best. Duncan is no stranger to the All-Star Game experience, and even though he is at the tail end of his career, he has what it takes to win this award. Duncan split the MVP honors in 2000 by scoring 24 points and bringing in 14 rebounds. Duncan can be found at +1300, while Durant is at +600 right now at BetUS<\/a>.<\/p>\n
