The NBA All-Star Game has struggled to garner fan interest with the players’ typical lack of effort and the game’s ever-changing format, and LeBron James certainly did not help the NBA’s cause Sunday night.
After being chosen as an All-Star starter for the 21st straight time, James announced less than two hours before the event’s tipoff that he would not be playing due to lingering ankle and foot discomfort.
Many took issue with the tardiness of the announcement.
Not only did the All-Star Game lose the participation of essentially its biggest star at the last second, but some players missed out on a potential appearance in the game as an injury replacement.
Four-time champ and All-Star Draymond Green is good friends with James and did not approve of the last-second decision.
