Later this evening, Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and the rest of Jazz nation will find out which team these two All-Stars will suit up for during the 2021 All-Star Game.

Each team will include twelve players. Team captain's LeBron James and Kevin Durant can select their teammates from the list of twenty-four all-stars that have previously been named. Just like last year's All-Star Game, the team captains can select players from either conference. James will have the first selection of the All-Star starters during round one of the draft, while Durant will have the first selection of All-Star reserves during round two. Both team captains will alternate picks throughout both rounds.

Gobert and Mitchell have both been named as All-Star reserves, so keep your eyes out for them being selected during the second round of the draft. Last year, both Mitchell and Gobert were drafted by Team Giannis. Gobert was taken with Antetokounmpo's third pick in the second round, and Mitchell was taken with Antetokounmpo's final pick in the selection draft.

Will the two Jazzmen join Head Coach Quin Snyder and Team LeBron? Or will they suit up for Team Durant during the 2021 All-Star Game? Find out on Thursday night at 6PM MST. The All-Star Selection Draft will be televised on TNT and will be live streamed on Watch TNT.
