Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic was named a starter for the All-Star Game next month, something that left many fans both surprised and even angry that he got the nod over Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard.
Doncic, shockingly, is also one of those people.
“I didn’t expect that I was going to start this game,” Doncic said Saturday, via ESPN’s Tim MacMahon. “I know that maybe [Damian] Lillard deserved it more than me.”
Trail Blazers not happy about Lillard snub
Lillard, of course, is in the midst of a tremendous season.
