Former Kentucky guard Devin Booker was left off the list of reserves for the NBA All-Star Game.
Booker becomes the only player in NBA history to average 27 points and 6 assists per game on 60% true shooting percentage to not make the All-Star Game.
No NBA player had ever averaged 27 PPG and 6 APG on 60 TS% and missed the All-Star Game until Devin Booker. So that’s fun

Devin Booker has not been selected to the All-Star Game.
The only other players in NBA history to average 27 PPG and 6 APG on 50% shooting in a season are LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Steph Curry and Oscar Robertson. pic.twitter.com/HW0PjHa6EL
