NBA All Stars: Who?s Got the Most Game?

February 14, 2013

With the NBA All-Star Game coming up this weekend, basketball fans can look forward to plenty of slam dunks and flashy personalities. To get a sense of which players have the most game?both on and off the court?a recent Nielsen and E-Poll N-Score study took a look at the most exciting active NBA players.

?While the NBA All-Star Game is a great way for all participating players to showcase their marketability, it?s notable that the most exciting players on the court will be younger players from secondary market teams, like the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets, as well as the Los Angeles Clippers?a team that has emerged out of the Lakers? shadow. It?s also interesting that these players are in the Western Conference,? says Stephen Master, Nielsen?s Senior Vice President of Sports.

The table below ranks the Top 5 Most Exciting Active Players in the NBA?all of whom were tapped to be on the All-Star roster.
