Star reserves were unveiled Thursday night on TNT’s Inside the NBA and officially confirmed by the league shortly after. A total of 14 players will join the 10 starters in San Francisco on February 16.
This is the fourth time in franchise history that the Cavaliers have earned three NBA All-Star selections (1989, 1993 and 2017). Other Eastern Conference reserves include: Jaylen Brown (Boston), Pascal Siakim (Indiana), Cade Cunningham (Detroit), Damian Lillard (Milwaukee) and Tyler Herro (Miami).
Jaylen Brown, Pascal Siakam, Darius Garland, Cade Cunningham, Evan Mobley, Damian Lillard, Tyler Herro.
Garland certainly has done his part, averaging 21.3 points, 6.7 assists, 2.5 rebounds, while shooting 49.7 percent from the field and 42.8 percent on threes. While Herro averages more points, Garland is the only All Star caliber guard in the conference with higher overall and three-point shooting percentages than Herro.
