New York Knicks power forward Kristaps Porzingis shrugged off questions about failing to secure a starting spot for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game due to fan and media voting.
On Friday, Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News passed along comments from Porzingis, who finished ahead of the Philadelphia 76ers' Joel Embiid in votes from fellow players, but behind him in both the fan and media tallies.
"Players know," he said. "That's all I'm going to say."
Embiid, the Cleveland Cavaliers' LeBron James and the Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo were announced as the three frontcourt starters from the Eastern Conference on Thursday.
James and Antetokounmpo were slam-dunk selections. They rank first and second in the conference in Value Added, according to ESPN.com. The third frontcourt spot was more wide open, though.
