Westbrook misses cut for NBA All-Star reserves
Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook missed the cut for NBA All-Star Game on March 7 game in Atlanta after the reserves were announced Tuesday.
Westbrook is a nine-time All-Star and his streak of appearances stops at six. Starter Bradley Beal will be the Wizards lone representative.
New Orleans forward Zion Williamson is one of four first-time All-Stars. Only three others in the game’s 70-year history have gotten there at a younger age.
Joining Williamson as fellow All-Star rookies: Boston’s Jaylen Brown, New York’s Julius Randle and Chicago’s Zach LaVine.
