Post #1 » by **RealGM Wiretap** » Mon Feb 10, 2025 2:34 pm

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young was named as an injury replacement for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game. Young will replace Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who will miss the game due to a calf strain.

Young has averaged 23.5 points and a league-leading 11.4 assists per game. This will be Young's fourth All-Star appearance in his seven seasons.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver will also name a Western Conference injury replacement for Anthony Davis. Davis is expected to miss several weeks due to a strained adductor suffered over the weekend.

The coaches vote on the replacements. Allegedly they are not hand selected by the Commissioner. Sabonis should have a good chance.
