The 2016 NBA All-Star game tips off this Sunday night at 8:00 p.m. and fans now have a really cool way to vote for the game' MVP on social media. The NBA announced on Thursday night that there will be custom emojis that fans can use to vote on who fans want to be the MVP. It sounds kind of cheesy, but these things are really creative and fun. Here's what the official release had to say about the latest promotion.
"For the first time, the Kia NBA All-Star MVP Award fan vote will be conducted exclusively through Twitter. Beginning at the start of the fourth quarter of NBA All-Star Game on TNT, fans can register MVP votes during a 30-minute window by tweeting #KiaAllStarMVP and #firstnamelastname in the same tweet."
Check out a preview of the emojis below — my personal favorite just might be Demarcus Cousins' ghost one.
