James created yet another record in the NBA world by becoming the first player to have 20 All-Star selections. Apart from missing out on his All-Star selection in his rookie year, the Akron Hammer had continued to make it to the All-Star starting line-up. On the other hand, Steph joined the elite club with 10x All-Star appearances.

Currently, only 5 active players are part of the club. Apart from James and Steph, Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, and James Harden have appeared in 10+ All-Star games.
