Coaches vote Julius Randle in over Jimmy Butler again, just like 2021. It wasn’t the right decision then either. – 7:23 PM
21 is bringing the heat to Salt Lake City!! 🔥

Here’s how the advanced metrics stack up for the NBA Eastern Conference All-Stars
Looks like Jimmy Butler and James Harden were the biggest snubs. I’d have personally had both on my team (Randle’s been on 🔥 recently, but started off slow)

Bam – who makes his second All Star game – ranks 4th among all NBA centers in scoring, 8th in rebounding, 6th in assists and is one of league’s best defenders. Obviously deserving… Jimmy Butler had a very strong case for his 7th All Star bid but doesn’t get the nod this year. – 7:20 PM

Bam Adebayo in, Jimmy Butler not for NBA All-Star Game. sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-h… DeMar DeRozan, Julius Randle and Jrue Holiday among those selected over Butler. – 7:17 PM
And given the Jimmy Butler, Pascal Siakam, Jalen Brunson and James Harden were omitted from the All-Star Game, #Cavs Darius Garland’s chances of becoming an injury replacement (if needed) don’t feel all that promising either. – 7:16 PM
NEW: Bam Adebayo is an All-Star for the second time in his NBA career. But Jimmy Butler was not selected miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia… Both Adebayo and Butler had strong All-Star cases, but East coaches selected Adebayo as the Heat’s All-Star – 7:15 PM

Julius Randle has earned a $1.2M All-Star bonus for being selected as a reserve.
The bonus is now considered likely for the 2023-24 season. – 7:11 PM
Leaving Jimmy Butler off the East squad was the one thing that I thought could happen that was A) possible and B) totally insane. – 7:11 PM
Jalen Brunson with the classic needs another year to build his rep snub. Always a bummer. He has been awesome this year. – 7:10 PM

DeMar DeRozan earns his second-straight All-Star distinction, the sixth of his career.

No All-Star berth for Jimmy Butler, who could go as a potential injury replacement. His 15 missed games clearly a factor. – 7:07 PM
