The 2024 All-Star bench lineup is officially announced (the bench is voted on by the coaches of each team)
West: Leonard, Bushy Eyebrows, Booker, Huazi, Curry, George, Towns
East: Jaylen Brown, Mitchell, Brunson, Adebayo, Randle, Maxey, Banchero
This is the first time in Curry's career that he has been selected as an All-Star as a substitute, and Curry has been selected as a starter in the previous 10 All-Stars.
Randle received $1.3 million as an All-Star and Jaylen Brown received $1.7 million because of the bonus terms of his contract.
Sabonis, on the other hand, lost 1.3 million in prize money and Holiday lost 348,000 in prize money because he missed the All-Star program.
Who do you think is the most unfortunate among the players who failed to make the All-Star selection?
Irving?
Bridge?
Harden?
Blowing Yang?
Goebel?
Porzingis?
Fat Tiger?
Sabonis?
Fox?
Anyway, none of the kings were selected, so they were 5th in the West.
Fox averaged 27.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game
Sabonis averaged 19.9 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists per game
Aren't they all worthy?!
The average age of the Western Conference bench is 29.7 years
The average age of the Eastern Conference substitutes is 25.7 years
Do you see anything from this disparity in average age?
Well, once young stars are trained in the East, they like to run to the West, and it is difficult for the East to retain a famous player for a long time, so the East is younger than the West as a whole from starters to substitutes.
You see, Leonard was a player in the East for a short time, George was drafted by the Pacers in the East, James was a player in the East this year, and Durant played in the East for several years before.
The starting points in the West are James, Durant, Jokic, Doncic, Alexander
The Eastern starters are Lillard, Haliburton, Antetokounmpo, Embiid, and Tatum
