1. Devin Booker – Phoenix Suns
Easily the biggest snub from the 2021 NBA All-Star game is Phoenix Suns shooting guard, Devin Booker. His backcourt mate, Chris Paul, was selected to the game as a reserve, but Booker probably should have gotten the nomination over him.
It will most likely be a moot point, as someone will be replacing Anthony Davis, who is injured, on the team. However, Devin Booker deserved the recognition that comes with having his own spot on the team, not being a replacement player again as he was in 2020.
The Suns are having a great season at 20-10, which is key for being selected to the NBA All-Star Game. Once again, Booker is also having a very productive season, averaging 24.7 points to go along with 4.3 assists and 3.8 rebounds.
When your snub garners the attention of LeBron James, you know it was egregious.
While it is nice that Devin Booker is the likely selection to replace Anthony Davis, it is only a matter of time until he is given a spot of his own on an NBA All-Star team.
