San francisco: Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry will not be playing in the NBA All-Star game on Sunday, February 15th, due to a knee injury. The NBA is set to host its All-Star Weekend from February 13-15, with the highlight being the All-Star Game, which will feature a new format this year. Instead of the traditional Eastern vs. Western Conference system, the game will see a World All-Star team divided into three teams: Team USA Stars, Team USA Stripes, and Team World.
According to Thai News Agency, Curry, who was voted into the Western Conference starting five, will miss this weekend's All-Star game due to his knee injury. As of now, no replacement has been announced, but the rules stipulate that the replacement must be an American player.
