Trae Young is an All-Star
With Giannis Antetokounmpo unable to participate in the 2025 NBA All-Star game due to injury, Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks has been selected to replace him.
Young has averaged 23.5 points and 11.4 assists per game so far this season, with a notable uptick in play since being “snubbed” from the original All-Star roster. Across five games in February, Young is averaging 31.8 points and 11.8 assists while shooting 46.8 percent from the field.
The Hawks will face Orlando tonight and the Knicks on Wednesday, then Young will be headed to the Bay Area for All-Star weekend.
