At the start of this new NBA season, the editorial team has played the usual little game of predictions. The individual trophies, the teams that will disappoint, amaze, etc., we get wet so that we can hit the bars in eight months, looking back on – very often – these disastrous takes. Today ? Our predictions for the new All-Stars, those who could reach a milestone. And never forget, you can prune, but we want your opinion first.

Victor Wembanyama, Alperen Sengun, Cade Cunningham, Jalen Williams, Evan Mobley : given the enormous pool of talent that exists in the NBA and the grandpas who are resisting, it is perhaps a lot to imagine five new All-Stars in 2025. However, all the guys mentioned will have serious arguments . Wemby is destined to break everything in his sophomore season, Sengun already came close to the All-Star Game last year, Cunningham will have his best NBA season within a minimally respectable team, Jalen Williams will continue his rise to the within a formidable Thunder, and finally Evan Mobley will take advantage of the arrival of Kenny Atkinson to take a big step forward in his offensive game. We will find all these names next February, that’s for sure!

Victor Wembanyama, Alperen Sengun, Jalen Williams, Franz Wagner, Cade Cunningham and Jalen Johnson. In this order of belief. No world for me in which Wemby isn’t an All-Star starting this season, and the number of statements posed in the months of October/November will serve as support for my remarks. For Alperen Sengun it is time and the Rockets’ record in January could help in this sense, while the good collective results could weigh in the balance for Jalen Williams and to a lesser extent Franz Wagner. For Cade and Jalen the odds are high but why not, and there too the results of their team could serve as judges of the peace.

Victor Wembanyama, Jalen Williams, Alperen Sengun. Three fairly safe choices in my mind. I can’t imagine for a minute Wemby not cracking the All-Star box in 2025. Alpy already had a good record last year and if he continues his progress, he will be a fairly obvious choice. Finally, big hype for Jalen Williams, who I imagine reaching a new milestone this season, with the acquisition of a star. If the Thunder dominate in the West, the possibility of sending another representative with Shai makes sense.

Victor Wembanyama, Cade Cunningham, Jalen Williams. The trifecta in order, the one that everyone likes to throw, glass in hand, with confidence, in the local PMU. Elbow resting on the counter where peanut crumbs and wine stains left over from the day before (or from another time, no one is too sure) are dueling because the guys only have ‘to be careful with their drink. We’re not talking about nags here but about young NBA players who want to conquer the stars. If the Starship can return to Earth after having accomplished its mission, that is not the objective of these three thieves. A one-way ticket to the cosmos, the next step for careers that dream of being as big as the universe.

Victor Wembanyama and… that’s it: I offer you a short list of things less likely than the Alien All-Star this season: Stephen Curry hitting a 3-pointer in a match, Denis Brogniart landing an “AH” in post-production on Koh-Lanta, my cat who asks me for kibble at 6:58 p.m. and death. Did I have to end in such a dismal way? No. Did that make me laugh? Probably. Otherwise, the West seems too competitive to see another new face make his debut at the All-Star Game and in the East no one stands out in my eyes. If I had to place a mini coin, I wouldn’t be very surprised if Tyler Herro, Derrick White or Cade Cunningham were to scratch a place among the guards of the Conference League Is after two injuries.
Maxime
Victor Wembanyama, Chet Holmgren and Alperen Sengun: there, we’re not sure it’s almost impossible tah Max Christie MIP. On the contrary, these three choices seem to me, barring injury, rather safe. For Victor, no need to elaborate, going through the stars is necessary when aiming for the moon. On the other hand, for the other two giants, an explanation may be necessary. Chet, first, will accompany Shai to the All Star Game if OKC continues to dominate in the West. Between him and Jalen Williams, it’s on the big that I throw my coin. A bit stupid though, because I don’t have many pieces. Finally. The Rockets could also benefit from a not too bad ranking this season, the opportunity to send a representative to San Francisco. And who better than Alpi to honor the Rockets? We agree.
Thibault
Victor Wembanyama, Alperen Sengun and Jalen Johnson: Is there really a need to debate the Victor Wembanyama case? No. Let’s move on to the next names, namely that of Alperen Sengun. Already in the discussions last year, he did not do so in the final moments. With the Rockets confirming, the Turk will be star-studded. Finally, Jalen Johnson. After his statistical explosion last year, if the Hawks stand on their own again, JaJo could fly to Oakland in mid-February. While he is not the most obvious choice because there are quite a few names ahead of him, Jalen Johnson could benefit from a favorable situation to acquire his star.
Clément
Victor Wembanyama et Jalen Williams : First of all, let us be very clear, there is absolutely no chance of seeing Totor both in full health and forgotten from the All-Star Game. Wemby is only at the beginning of his crazy adventures and he will celebrate with his first star in his second season. Also, the Thunder should still monopolize the first places in the West and then the question of bringing one of his teammates back to SGA will inevitably arise, and in this little game there, it is the progress of Jalen Williams, second designated option in OKC, who will be the lucky one. Cade Cunningham and Alperen Sengun could well be among the new ones, but in my opinion it would take an injury to see them invited to the party.
