The NBA on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila) began unveiling the members of its 75th anniversary team.
The first 25 players -- listed alphabetically -- include three active players -- Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brooklyn's Kevin Durant and James Harden.
The 75th anniversary team was selected by a blue-ribbon panel of media, current and former players, coaches, general managers, and team executives.
"We look forward to honoring the players and teams -- both past and present -- who have inspired generations of fans around the world," NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in July when plans for the unveiling of the league's 75th anniversary team were announced.
