nba-releases-all-star-starters-mitchell-and-james-not-selected
The NBA has announced the ten starters for its upcoming All-Star Game, and two prominent names are missing from the list: Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell and Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James.
Mitchell, averaging strong numbers for Cleveland, and James, a perennial All-Star for Los Angeles, were not included among the five starters chosen from each conference. The league’s brief reveal did not specify why the pair fell short, but their omission marks a notable change from recent seasons in which both players routinely opened the mid-season showcase.
Further details on the complete All-Star rosters have not yet been released.
