Draymond Green didn’t hold back during a recent live broadcast as he expressed his frustration with the NBA’s new All-Star Game format. The Golden State Warriors star criticized the inclusion of the Rising Stars game in the All-Star Weekend, claiming it undermines the significance of the All-Star title itself. “I never played in the Rising Stars game my first two years; it’s absurd that these players get to step on the All-Star floor,” Green remarked, equating the prestigious All-Star court to Air Force One, reserved only for the president.

Green voiced his discontent with the NBA’s attempts to boost flagging ratings by introducing younger players who have yet to reach All-Star caliber. He argued that this approach diminishes the accomplishments of those who have worked hard to earn their All-Star status. “You work all year to be an All-Star, and then you see second-year guys taking the floor on that stage,” he lamented.

The veteran player also suggested that the NBA needs to rethink how to incentivize players to participate fully in the All-Star activities. He proposed increasing financial rewards or linking home-court advantage for the finals to All-Star performances, similar to practices in other sports.

As Green reflected on the competitive nature of the All-Star Game, he emphasized the legacy of great players who had the opportunity to chase scoring records during these events. He noted that the current format limits players like Victor Wembanyama and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from making their mark in history.

In a pointed critique of the Rising Stars game, Green stated, “They never belonged on that court,” and expressed disappointment in the lack of excitement during the matches. His comments sparked a lively discussion about the future of the NBA’s All-Star Weekend and the importance of maintaining its integrity and allure for both players and fans alike.
