Returned Miami Heat great Dwyane Wade and Australian NBA star Ben Simmons filled the second and third positions while Derrick Rose’s Minnesota jersey and Milwaukee’s Greek superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo filled out the top five.

Australians also got behind their own as Utah Jazz star Joe Ingles placed 10th in jersey sales while the Boston Celtics still remain wildly popular, with Jayson Tatum placed sixth and Kyrie Irving seventh.

Simmons, attempting to become the first Australian-raised All-Star, is currently wrestling with Irving and Wade for fan votes for starting guard roles at the NBA All-Star game next month in Charlotte.

But though he is playing well he trails Irving and Wade by a sizeable margin. He could still earn a place either from media votes (fan and media votes decide the starters) or from the coaches who vote for the seven bench players from the eastern conference.

"It's one of those accolades and goals I kind of want to accomplish," Simmons told Nine.

"Hopefully people are sitting down at breakfast right now and they log on and vote me into the game. I appreciate all the support I've had from back home."

Fan voting remains open and votes can be cast once a day until it closes later this month.
