In another sign of the strong chemistry this season’s Bulls have formed, Zach LaVine shared in DeMar DeRozan’s All-Star joy——and DeRozan stumped for LaVine’s All-Star starting credentials.
While making sure to credit his fellow Eastern Conference starting backcourt mate in Trae Young, DeRozan also emphasized how much LaVine deserved the berth. LaVine, who is a near-lock to be named an All-Star reserve by coaches' vote next week, actually drew more player votes than Young. But those only comprise 25 percent of the overall voting, and Young prevailed in fan and media voting.
"Nothing against Trae, Trae is definitely All-Star. I felt Zach should’ve been in there as well. You see it from the players’ reaction," DeRozan said, citing the player vote."Nothing against Trae at all. But I wish he would’ve got in there. I think that would’ve been dope to have the both of us in there as starters. No question he’ll be in there next week. But as far as starters, that would’ve been something cool.
