No Kings is kinda crazy
Who do you leave off? Steph I guess is the only one, maybe Ant?
I'm leaving off KAT. Fantastic numbers, but he's kind of a third wheel in their offense after Ant and the Conley/Gobert two man game.
I'm also biased because of his tendency to be a space cadet. He couldn't do what Sabonis is doing with the Kings.

Yep “while a treatment plan is finalised” sounds like weeks out for Embiid.

Ligaments don't really get better, the swelling will go down, you'll strengthen around if, but the ligaments stays torn until they need surgery. It's only a matter of time now.

Poor Vic. Gets traded around more than a wet nap.

I’d put Sabonis over KAT and PG. I’d give him Curry’s spot too

That's wild. Lakers shot 19 more FTs than the home team.

West: Injury replacements are Markkanen and Fox/Murray.
Jokic
KD
LeBron
SGA
Luka
AD
Kawhi
George
Edwards
Sabonis
Curry
Booker
East: Injury replacements are Trae and Randle.
Embiid
Giannis
Tatum
Dame
Haliburton
Mitchell
Maxey
Barnes
Porzingis
Brunson
Wagner
Adebayo
I only missed one (KAT for Sabonis) in the West. Didn't even have KAT as a replacement.
Mixed up Banchero and Wagner and it was a coin flip for me, but Banchero is the bigger name so that's fine. I also thought it would be between Porzingis and Brown for the second Celtic and picked KP because he's more important to their success. I'm a little surprised by Barnes being left off.
I think there will be at least one injury replacement in the West (probably Kawhi) and the Kings will get one of their guys in. We already know Randle is out so I'll guess Trae Young gets his spot since Silver makes the selection and Trae is a lot more fun to watch in an ASG than someone like KP or Barnes.

Trae should make it. Wish the Hawks were better. Also think it really sucks for Kings fans not having Fox or Sabonis there.

Yea, they definitely got hosed. Crazy how many teams have 2 players. Clips, Lakers, Suns and Min all have 2 on the West.

Hawks suck…Trae doesn’t have much of a case to me…he’ll also likely get put on when Randle and Embiid are replaced.

Kings got screwed. I get that Minny has been #1 but they don't have two players worthy of being All-Stars.

I was super surprised that KAT made the All-Stars, as he's having one of his worst seasons stats wise.
Another that probably should have made it in the East is Trae Young.

Hawks are 20-27, Trae doesn’t need to be an all-star. He’s also maybe the worst defensive player in the league
