“Devin Booker is the most disrespected player in our league!!! Simple as that.”
LeBron James is FURIOUS about Devin Booker’s snub from the All-Star Game … saying the Phoenix Suns star was more than deserving to make the team in 2021.
The Western Conference reserves were just announced Tuesday … and while huge names like Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis, Chris Paul and Zion Williamson were picked, 24-year-old Booker didn’t make the cut.
Of course, Booker is averaging nearly 25 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists a game … with the red-hot Suns sitting at 4th place in the conference standings with a 20-10 record so far this season.
Apparently, that wasn’t enough for the NBA coaches … who each voted for 7 reserves to rep their conference in the game.
King James fired off about the snub on Twitter … and he wasn’t the only one.
Blazers guard CJ McCollum also expressed his dissatisfaction with Book getting left out … saying, Damn @DevinBook really didn’t make it ? That’s craxy . Bruh really cold too smh. Sick world”
LBJ also weighed in on Lillard not being named a starter for the ASG … saying he’s the second most disrespected player behind Booker.
Now, there’s still hope Booker sneaks into the festivities and becomes a replacement for AD, who is dealing with a calf and Achilles injury.
Warning to the rest of the league — Devin Booker definitely has that motivation going into the second half of the season.
