Trae Young and Kyrie Irving have been selected as replacements for Giannis Antetokounmpo and Anthony Davis in the 2025 NBA All-Star Game due to injuries. Young will join Team Chuck, led by Charles Barkley, while Irving will play for Team Shaq alongside LeBron James.
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young was named on Monday as a replacement for injured Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game . Later in the day, the NBA tapped Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving as an All-Star Game replacement for his new teammate, center/forward Anthony Davis . Young, 26, will make his fourth All-Star appearance on Sunday at Chase Center in San Francisco, where the new format features a four-team, three-game mini-tournament.
Antetokounmpo, 30, is unable to participate due to a left calf strain. The nine-time All-Star was drafted onto Team Chuck by TNT analyst Charles Barkley. Young is averaging 23.5 points and a league-leading 11.4 assists through 49 games this season. He is the 10th player in Hawks history to make at least four All-Star teams. Irving, 32, will make his ninth All-Star appearance. He has averaged 24.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 4.8 assists through 42 games (all starts) this season for Dallas. Irving will join Team Shaq, headlined by his former teammate LeBron James. Davis — who can also describe himself as a former teammate of James’ since being traded from Los Angeles to Dallas for Luka Doncic — suffered an adductor strain in his Mavericks debut and is reportedly set to miss multiple weeks
