Ask Sam Mailbag: Zach LaVine's All-Star candidacy, Lauri playing center, and more

Sam dives into your questions ahead of finalized All-Star selections coming early next week.

Art Alenik:

ZACH LAVINE, ALL-SUPER-STAR: It's wrong that Bradley Beal leads East guards in All-Star voting. The more relevant argument is that if you shoot every time you see the ball, you may average over 30 ppg, but your team still loses. Zach is trying more to share the ball, and still averages over 28. I'm sorry but Zach is not just the fifth best guard in the East. SI lists Zach as a "wild card" to maybe be selected by the coaches.
