Atlanta guard Trae Young doesn’t view not getting picked for the All-Star Game as getting snubbed. He has a new word. “It’s getting ‘Traed’ at this point,” he wrote on social media.

“It just reproves the point that the NBA is different from the game that I fell in love with at the beginning, when all the best players get in the All-Star Game, growing up watching that,” Booker told reporters. “Now it’s an entertainment, drama, political-filled league. But we’re a part of it now. It pays well so I guess we should be quiet about it.”

“That also doesn’t preclude me from feeling the way I do about Trae,” Snyder said. “I haven’t coached him for that long, but I feel like he’s had the best year of his career. ...
