Jarrett Allen to replace James Harden for Team LeBron’s All-Star team
NBA commissioner Adam Silver selected Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen as James Harden’s injury replacement for Team LeBron at the 2022 All-Star game.
Harden won’t be able to play due to a hamstring injury, so Team LeBron needed a replacement from the Eastern Conference to take his spot.
Allen joins teammate Darius Garland as the two members of the Cavaliers to make the All-Star game, and they’ll join LeBron to play in Cleveland.
The 23-year-old center is having an extremely productive season with the emerging Cavaliers. He’s averaging 16.2 points, 11.1 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 66.5% from the field.
Allen is the only center in the reserves for Team LeBron.
