After a slow start that saw him shooting under 40%, Anthony has improved his numbers to 44% from the field, 41 from three-point  range, 9 rebounds and 3 assists.

In last year’s All-Star game, Melo put up 26 points and notched 12 assists. Rounding out the starting five with Anthony are LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Paul George and Kyrie Irving.
