Bradley Beal – All-Star snub

Bradley Beal is the prime candidate for the worst snub of all-time, let alone this season. Bradley Beal has been carrying an injury-ridden Wizards team on his back ever since John Wall had back-to-back severe injuries in early 2019, keeping him out of all things NBA until the start of the 2020-21 season.

With that, Beal is currently averaging a whopping 29 points, six assists, and four rebounds whilst shooting just under 50 percent from the field. Not to mention this Wizards team is just three games out of a playoff spot. There’s really no clear explanation for why Beal isn’t heading to Chicago this February.

No player has ever averaged as many points and has not been nominated as an All-Star. The only plausible reasoning behind this snubbing is Beal missing a few games and the Wizards not being a better team as a whole with him as a leader. Otherwise, I can’t really comprehend this decision.
