Injuries aplenty! Meiji: In yesterday’s four games, every team had All-Star players absent.

Trail Blazers reporter Tom Haberstroh recently published an article saying that according to the latest data from Yahoo Sports, NBA stars have missed twice as many games this season as in the 2023-24 season, and nearly half of the stars are injured (reporter's note: Stars cited the NBA's official definition as being selected to the All-Star or All-NBA Team in any of the past three seasons).

Haberstroh also said that taking the four games that just ended yesterday as an example, each of the eight teams has All-Star players absent: Leonard of the Clippers, Benqueiro of the Magic, Sabonis of the Kings, Morant of the Grizzlies, Trae Young of the Eagles, Benyama of the Spurs, Embiid of the 76ers, and Antetokounmpo of the Bucks.
