Trae Young was not named as an All-Star reserve for this year’s game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. The announced backcourt for the East is comprised of Damian Lillard and Tyrese Haliburton.

Young has averaged 26.9 points, 10.8 assists, and three rebounds per game this season, though he’s missed the last two games while in concussion protocol. In the latest release of fan votes, Young finished in second place behind Tyrese Haliburton, who fans separated from the bunch. The approximate 2.27 million votes would rank him fifth in the East overall.

The fan votes were worth 50 percent of the returns, while current players and media made up the other 50 percent of votes.
