Booker is averaging 25.5 points, 4,0 rebounds and 6.7 assists in 41 games this season. He fell short of a reserve spot behind Anthony Edwards, Anthony Davis, James Harden, Jaren Jackson Jr., Alperen Sengun, Jalen Williams and Victor Wembanyama.

Kevin Durant will be the only Sun representing the Valley at this year’s All-Star game as a starter. Following a 121-113 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Durant made the case to push the amount of All-Star roster spots to 15 instead of 12.

“I think we can add three more spots to each team,” Durant said. “There’s so many great players that’s going out there and impacting their team in a positive way that will be snubbed.”

The 2025 All-Star Game will be taking place in Chase Center in San Francisco on Sunday, Feb. 16, at 8 p.m. EST.
