Dwyane Wade on 2019 NBA All-Star Voting: 'I'm Not Picking Me'

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade told reporters Friday that he wouldn't choose himself to play in this year's NBA All-Star Game.

"If I'm choosing an All-Star, I'm not picking me," he said, per Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel. "It's not an indictment on anything, but guys that deserve to be All-Stars will be All-Stars."

He continued:

"For the first time, I actually agree with [TNT analyst] Charles Barkley and what he said. It's a lot of guys that get their first chance to be All-Stars, and if they deserve it, then they deserve it and they should have those spots.
