Pelicans' Anthony Davis takes All-Star start in stride

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – As he has done with everything else in his meteoric rise to NBA stardom, Anthony Davis is taking his first All-Star start in stride.

Davis drew more than 1.3 million votes from fans in totals announced Thursday night. That is the third highest in the league behind Golden State’s Steph Curry and Cleveland’s LeBron James.

Speaking on Friday before his New Orleans Pelicans faced the Minnesota Timberwolves, Davis said he never even saw how many votes he received. He was named to the Western Conference team last year as a reserve.

Davis says he doesn’t distinguish between being a starter or a reserve. But he calls the support from fans a blessing.

The All-Star game is Feb. 15 in New York.
