The NBA is a very competitive league, and it's not easy to play an All-Star in this league for a long time. Unless you're a superstar like James, Durant, Alphabet Brother and Curry, who can play a steady performance every season and are easily selected as An All-Star, it's not difficult for a star of this level to be an All-Star every season.
But for a lot of the average player, they're going to be hard to be an All-Star for two years in a row for some reason. This season, the league has the following 10 players, because of injuries, or personal performance, or other reasons, they are likely to lose the All-Star this season after being selected as an All-Star last season.
Number 10: Mike Conley
Conley was lucky to be named an All-Star last season because of an injury to the player who was selected earlier, which led to his eventual substitution, the first time he was selected as an All-Star in his career. So far in the new season, he has only been able to get 14.1 points, 3 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, shooting 46%, compared to last season, his performance has declined, coupled with the Jazz's performance this season is not as strong as last season, in this case, Conley wants to be selected as an All-Star again, which is very difficult.
9th: Zion
Zion was named an All-Star last season, which is also deserved, his play in the game is too shining, as a second-year player, he can average 27 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game, shooting as high as 61.1%, although the Pelicans' record last season was not ideal, but Zion was selected as an All-Star with his personal performance, which is also not controversial. However, Zion has not played a game for the team this season due to injury, and it is also predictable that he will not be an All-Star.
8th place: Small card
The situation is similar to that of Zion, who is also injured, has not played a game this season, has been in the recovery stage, and at the same time, in the fan vote, Xiaoka has not received a high number of votes. After being named an All-Star for three consecutive years, Jr. will also miss the All-Star Game this season due to injury.
7th place: Simmons
Simmons wanted to leave Philadelphia before the season began and refused to attend the team's training camp. However, after half a season, Simmons is still in Philadelphia, the team still has not received a deal that can impress them, and Simmons has played 0 games this season. In this case, Simmons will also miss this season's All-Star.
6th place: Irving
Irving was not vaccinated this season, which also led to his suspension from the Nets at the beginning of the season, and he only returned to the team some time ago. So far, Irving has only played 6 games for the Nets, and his personal performance is not bad, averaging 22.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, shooting 49.6%, shooting 36.4% from three-point range, and he has improved in each game. However, his appearances are too small, and in the media and player voting, Irving may suffer losses, and he will most likely lose the All-Star this season.
5th place: Sabonis
Sabonis, his performance this season is definitely worthy of the title of All-Star, so far this season, he can average 19 points, 11.9 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game, shooting 57.7%, he has 32 double-doubles and 4 triple-doubles in a single season, both of which are at the forefront of the league, and are considered to be the league's more outstanding interior players this season.
Unfortunately, the Pacers' record this season has not been ideal, and so far, the Pacers have only finished 17 wins and 30 losses, ranking 13th in the East, and still far from the playoff zone (top 10 in the East). Even if Sabonis is doing well, it is very difficult for him to be selected as an All-Star again because of his low profile and the team's low record.
4th place: Vucevic
Vucevic, his Bulls have been good enough, but he hasn't been as good this season as he has been in the past few seasons. After DeRozan joined the team, Vucevic became the team's third finisher, with a decline in ball possession and tactical position, and a lesser role in the game. Moreover, Vucevic has also had very sluggish performances in many games, not as stable and efficient as before when the Magic team was at the absolute core. Judging by the performances of this season, the Bulls' DeRozan and Ravin are highly likely to be selected, and Vucevic wants to be an All-Star, which is also unrealistic.
3rd place: Randall
Randle is arguably the star who has regressed the most this season, and last season, he played at the MVP level, helping the team a lot in all aspects, while also leading the Knicks into the playoffs, and playing very well individually.
However, Randall has only highlighted one season, and in this season, his performance has been unusually sluggish, and crotch pulling is already a routine operation for Randall. So far in the new season, Randall has only averaged 18.8 points, 10 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game, shooting 41.1% and shooting 30.8% from three-point range, compared to last season, he has seen a very big decline. At the same time, the Knicks' record this season is not ideal, currently ranking in the top 10 in the East, and it is difficult to enter the playoffs. On the basis of such performances and records this season, Randle has basically lost the All-Star.
2nd place: Lillard
Lillard, whose regression this season is also evident, as the league's top star, he played consecutive crotch-pulling performances at the beginning of the season, shooting very low. Although he quickly adjusted to his form and played a few good performances, Lillard did not play satisfactorily for most of the time.
The Trail Blazers' record has continued to decline this season, and they have only achieved a record of 19 wins and 26 losses, winning less and losing more, and Lillard has also undergone surgery in recent times, and it is uncertain whether they can come back this season. In this case, Lillard will essentially miss the All-Star Game.
1st place: Davis (AD)
Davis's performance this season has been somewhat disappointing, and the outside world is expected to be able to re-play superstar-level performances and dominate the game on both offensive and defensive ends. However, he has not done this this season, so far this season, he has only averaged 23.3 points, 9.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game, shooting 52.1% from the field and 17.9% from three-point range. This season's AD is not so good, and the Lakers' new season record is not ideal, currently only ranked 7th in the West, in the case of poor personal performance, the team's record is sluggish, and the fan vote is not in the top three (Western Frontcourt), Davis may lose the All-Star this season.
The above 10 players are very good in their individual abilities, they all played all-Star level last season and were successfully selected for the All-Star Game. Unfortunately, this season has been difficult for them to be selected for a number of reasons, and it's a shame that we may not see these 10 players in this year's All-Star game.
