About time: Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker chosen to replace injured Anthony Davis on NBA All-Star team

Devin Booker is an NBA All-Star.

Again. Finally.

After not making it as a reserve as voted on by the Western Conference coaches, Booker was chosen Wednesday by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to replace injured Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis for the 2021 NBA All-Star game March 7 in Atlanta.

Davis is expected to be out during the all-star break as he has a calf strain.

Last season, Booker made his first ever all-star appearance as an injury replacement for Damian Lillard, who spoke on Booker's behalf that fueled support for him to be added.
