Calipari took to Twitter congratulate both Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins for making the NBA All-Star game as starters. Cousins earns his fourth consecutive All-Star nod, his first as a starter and as a member of the Pelicans, and the seventh player in franchise history to be named an All-Star.
Davis won 2017 All-Star Game MVP in New Orleans while Cousins was limited to less than three minutes of playing time as his trade from the Sacramento Kings was simultaneously being finalized.
The other starters from the Western Conference included Golden State's Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant along with Houston's James Harden.
For this year's All-Star game, Devin Booker, Karl Anthony-Towns and John Wall seem like the most likely candidates to also make the All-Star game.

Trump accuses Democrats of being all-talk, no-action on DACA fix
The White House has not denied that Trump said the word "sh-hole", though Trump did push back on some depictions of the meeting. Nielsen's remarks come as lawmakers are struggling to come to an agreement about the scope of a DACA replacement.
The New Orleans Pelicans will be well-represented in the starting lineup for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game.
For the second straight season, the starters were decided by using 50 percent of the votes casted by fans along with votes from players and a selected media panel, which account for 25 percent each.
The All-Star teams will still feature 12 players from each conference, but the captains will select the team rosters without regard for conference affiliation. As the top-voted players in their respective conferences, LeBron and Steph Curry will get to pick their teams in a playground-style "draft". Davis has averaged 26.7 points, 10.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.1 blocks and 1.1 steals per game while Cousins has put up 25.3 points, 12.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.6 steals per game.
