LOS ANGELES – Despite being second in fan voting, Wolves guard Derrick Rose was not named a starter for the Western Conference in All-Star voting results the NBA announced Thursday.
Rose was behind only the Warriors’ Stephen Curry in fan voting among Western Conference guards for the game in Charlotte, the league said, but James Harden was named a starter alongside Curry in the final tally, which included media and player voting.
Rose came in fourth among players and tied for sixth in media vote, while Harden placed second among players and first among media, which put him ahead in the aggregate score.
