Like every year, there have been quite some notable snubs this year as well. Out of all the names, only one name is causing the most noise – Andrew Wiggins. While a lot of the names being brought up in the West are back-court players, there were some notable front-court snubs too. However, some trolls decided to use the selection as further ammunition to make their case about how much help Stephen Curry needs.
“Stephen Curry can’t win without multiple All-Stars”: Twitter trolls
In his 7 previous All-Star Games, Steph has had 4 games with his teammate as a fellow starter. This marks the fifth such occasion for the Dubs star.

Over the years, Stephen Curry has had some really incredible teammates. The Warriors drafted and helped Klay Thompson and Draymond Green become All-Stars. Steph’s played and won with Kevin Durant, DeMarcus Cousins, and multiple veteran leaders such as Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston, and more. Over the years, a lot of Steph’s teammates have been All-Stars, and Wiggins getting selected as a starter just adds to the list.
Warriors fans set themselves up by voting Andrew Wiggins as an all-star. They are now officially considered a superteam again.

It doesn’t matter what others say. Andrew Wiggins earned his All-Star selection. Over the year, he has been one of the most consistent players on the Dubs roster. He’s been averaging 18.1 points on 40.4% shooting from the deep. Wiggins has worked for his opportunity, and it’s time for him to reap the rewards.
