Dejounte Murray is an All-Star. He made it to the game as an injury replacement for Draymond Green and will be the first Spur to get the honor since LaMarcus Aldridge in 2019. It’s a huge moment for the young guard, who’s been playing at a high level all season, and for fans, who will get to see him share the court with the league’s best players.
Few reasonable people will object to his selection as a replacement, since he was the obvious choice, but now that we know he’s in, it’s time to ask if it was fair for him to have to wait for the commissioner to select him after fans, media and players failed to do so.
