Dragic finished with 408 points, including 65 first-place votes. The Pacers’ Lance Stephenson and the Hornets’ Anthony Davis finished second and third. Voting is done by a panel of 126 sportswriters and broadcasters in the United States and Canada.

Hawks forward Paul Millsap, who was named to his first All-Star Game this season, received one third-place vote.
