Dallas Mavericks stars Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis are hoping to make the 2020 All-Star game. They need your vote on Jan. 20 to make it happen.

Dallas Mavericks supporters are some of the most passionate and loyal in the NBA. They pack the American Airlines Center every game and are always showing out for their team.

Those fans need to come through in the clutch on Monday. It marks the final day of fan voting for the 2020 NBA All-Star game. Both Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis need your vote. They count double on the final day meaning both players can make up significant ground in the totals. It wraps up at 11:59 p.m. ET on Jan. 20, though.

Here is a tweet from the Mavericks telling fans how to vote.

Doncic could be the leading vote-getter in the NBA. He trailed only LeBron James in the last returns. If he becomes the leader in the Western Conference, Luka would captain the team. That means he would be able to pick who he plays with on Feb. 16 in Chicago.

KP was seventh in the Western Conference frontcourt when the returns were announced on Jan. 16. He was slightly behind Carmelo Anthony and Nikola Jokic. Mavs fans need to stuff the ballot box for Porzingis to be featured in the game.

Remember, the fan vote only counts for 50 percent of the total for all but the two captains. The media and the players each receive 25 percent in selecting the starters. The reserves are chosen by the coaches later this month.

Luka Doncic appears to be a lock to make his first All-Star team. He should be starting the backcourt for one of the two squads. Kristaps Porzingis is a long shot at this point, but injuries crop up and knock players out. Do not count him out entirely yet.
