If anything the last two games should seal the deal on Fox being an all-star.
De'Aaron ≠ All Star

If Zion is out, I can see Gordon as a nod to Denver’s record but then again I thought Fox would get in because of the record and performance.

With Steph Curry now sidelined with an injury, reports have indicated that the Sacramento Kings’ De’Aaron Fox will be replacing him.

Zion out as well. Any word yet, or expected timeline I wonder?

The problem I foresee is the Kyrie Irving trade to Dallas. Kyrie was announced a starter for the EC.
So, I can easily see the NBA inserting him into Steph’s spot in the West as a starter.
This is the spot that Swipa better get, IF he doesn’t get substituted for Steph.

Doesn't work that way. In the past, you stayed with the conference voted. But your forgetting they do the stupid draft of players for the teams.

As someone that lobbied hard for the KINGS to draft Swipa and staunchly defended him post-draft and in the years since — I’m quite happy to see this.
That said, to be fair, this era is so different and offensive-friendly that it’s an unfair comparison to most everyone on that list — with the possible exception of the guys that played in the 60’s and 70’s because I’ve heard/read that was an offensive stat friendly era as well.
But definitely not fair to the guys that played in the 80’s up til 2008ish.

I’ll take you word for it. Hope he gets in one way or another. He should have been in already.

This is the biggest indictment yet.
Btw, someone tell that Haliburton twitter guy that Hali is ducking Swipa on this list. Cause he ain’t on it.
Just sayin….
I'm a big Fox fan, but I'm not sure it makes a great point that Tiny accomplished this 5x more than him and the Big O did it 15x times more.
To be fair, those two have completed career totals and Fox still has what, 10 years to keep playing?
Yes, but De'Aaron would need to play for 20 more years at his current pace to catch Archibald and he'd need to play 70 more years to catch Robertson.

It would be nice on the resume but I bet he is secretly hoping to be at home with the family.

This has always been my feeling. It's great to be named, but I'd rather the guys get a few days off their feet.
