Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert broke into tears while commenting about not being selected to play in the upcoming All-Star game.
After answering several questions about being snubbed from the All-Star game prior to Friday’s game vs. the Atlanta Hawks, and saying that he felt “disrespected”, Gobert grew quite emotional and abruptly ended the presser walking away.
Quin Snyder, Gobert’s coach, had mentioned that his star defender “should absolutely be an All-Star” since he’s “one of the most impactful” players in the league.”
Gobert is considered a frontruner to win DPOY and earn the honor for second straight season.
