Davis is unable to participate in the NBA All-Star Game because of a left adductor strain. The 10-time NBA All-Star was drafted onto Team Shaq by its general manager, TNT analyst Shaquille O’Neal.
The 74th NBA All-Star Game will take place on Sunday, Feb. 16 at Chase Center in San Francisco. The new four-team, three-game mini-tournament will air at 8 p.m. ET on TNT.
