Replacement All Stars

I didnt see a thread about it so throwing it out there. Fox and Edwards are replacing Curry and Zion. Siakim is making it for KD.

I am suprised that Harden didn't get in as he has the name value and numbers while playing on a contender. Anyone besides Harden that you feel was left out?

First time appearance for Fox and Edwards so congrats. All three of them had their supporters and I have always been a fan of Fox. Two Kings in a ASG since probably 02 or 03ish.

Jokic has still never had an All-Star teammate.

Didn't Jaylen Brown just get hurt? There could be another spot available in the East.

Catchall · Post #5 » by **Catchall** » Fri Feb 10, 2023 9:17 pm

Also, Embiid, Ja and Lauri are being added to the starters.

Hey, this isn't serious, is it? Or are All Star Sluts like a new thing for All Star Weekend?

I know right, let me try and book a flight.

I thought usually they'd use SLC.

Yeah I'm not sure if he's playing the ASG or not. His face is broken but if he wants to play it seems like he could just wear a mask.

Actually now that I'm thinking about it, he must be playing if they didn't replace him today.

Not sure whats the news with Brown. I think he might be out as well. Likely replacements could be Harden or Brunson
