Team LeBron has the edge over Team Giannis when it comes to fan support for Sunday's NBA All-Star Game.

A map created by Betonline.ag based on geotagged Twitter data from the last week shows the majority of the United States - 39 states - are rooting for LeBron James and his team over Giannis Antetokounmpo's squad. Over 100,000 tweets were tracked, including hashtags such as #TeamLeBron and #TeamGiannis.

This is the second straight year that James and Antetokounmpo are serving as captains for the All-Star Game. Team LeBron won last year's game 178-164.
