Bradley Beal is a realist. The Wizards star understands the fan vote. He knows his team’s record, six games under .500.
So asked about his chances of being named among the All-Star starters when they’re announced by the league Thursday, Beal dismissed the idea outright.
“Let’s be honest, guys,” Beal said. “I’m not going to be a starter. It’s fine. It doesn’t hurt my feelings. It is what it is.”
Beal is seeking his second straight All-Star nomination. The 25-year-old has had a stellar season, averaging 24.7 points, five rebounds and five assists per game.
