The NBA has announced the 14 reserves chosen by the 30 coaches of the league for the next All-star Game in Atlanta. Between returns and first times, there were surprises: here are the players who will join the 10 starters for the match of the stars, with the two captains Lebron James and Kevin Durant who will choose the composition of the teams on March 4th.
All-star Game NBA 2021: quintets
If the public votes, that of the fans (which was worth 50%), that of the selected journalists (25% incidence) and that of the players themselves (the other 25%) had determined the composition of the two quintets – or the 10 players who will take to the field as starters on the night of March 7 Italian – the coaches were given the task of choosing the reserves for the Easterne and Western Conference.
Here are all the reserves and the usual “snub” or the most illustrious players left without a call for the game.
