Dallas Mavericks star point guard, Kyrie Irving, will serve as the replacement for Anthony Davis in the upcoming NBA All-Star Game that will take place in San Francisco, California. Davis, who was recently acquired in the blockbuster Luka Dončić deal, was gearing up for his ninth All-Star selection of his Hall of Fame-like career. He was supposed to play on Shaquille O’Neal’s All-Star squad. Davis suffered a left abductor strain in his Mavericks debut and will be out for at least a month per Shams Charania. As for Kyrie Irving, many peers felt he was snubbed from the All-Star Game in the first place. Now, he will replace his new teammate and make his ninth appearance in the event.
