Goran Dragić si je z nekaj sreče utrl pot na All-Star tekmo in postal sploh prvi Slovenec, ki bo dobil priložnost na tekmi vseh zvezd.
Dragiću so kot edinemu predstavniku moštva Miami Heat ob tej priložnosti čestitali reprezentančni kolegi, nekdanji in aktualni soigralci ter nekatera druga zveneča imena evropske in svetovne košarke.
Večina uporabnikov družbenih omrežij je Dragićevo udeležbo na All-Star vikendu pozdravila z velikim navdušenjem, našlo pa se je tudi nekaj takšnih, ki bi na tekmi raje videli bodisi Bena Simmonsa (Philadelphia 76ers) bodisi Kembo Walkerja (Charlotte Hornets).
"Skrajni čas," je Dragićev trenutek pospremil bosanski center pri Portland Trail Blazers Jusuf Nurkić. Čestitke so zvezdniku Miamija izrekli še njegov brat Zoran, Klemen Prepelič, Edo Murić in Beno Udrih. "Zelo sem vesel zate. Zasluženo," je zapisal slednji.
Izbor komisarja Adama Silverja pa ni zadovoljil vseh. "Mi lahko kdo pojasni, kako je Dragić dobil prednost pred Benom Simmonsom?" je zapisal nek uporabnik, drugi pa je dodal: "All-Star tekme, izbor ali rezultat mi ne bodo kratili spanca, a Dragić pred Kembo je zločin lige NBA."

Ben Simmons will be in 10+ All Star games in his career. Relax. Let Dragic get the shine.

Goran dragic has a negative net rating...and -3.1 plus minus when he is on the court! #ALLSTARMYASS

Even tho I’d love to see Simmons over Dragic, now that I think about it Dragic deserves it more. Leading a 4th seed team > leading an 8th seed team

I’ll never lose sleep over the ASG, the selection process, or the results of any of it. But Dragic over Kemba should be an NBA crime in ‘17-18. Kemba has 5.8 NETRTG when on court. Dragic is -3.7. That’s a difference of 9.5. Wow. #BuzzCity

The All Star game is for the FANS, the FANS want to see the most exciting talent in the All Star game. Only Heat fans want to see Dragic in there over Ben Simmons

I am ... not sure Dragic is an All Star.

GORAN DRAGIC ENFIN ALL STAR ??????
— Heat Nation Fr (@HEAT_NationFR) February 1, 2018
Ben Simmons, Goran Dragic, Kemba Walker, and Khris Middleton were all being considered as an All Star replacement
— Hoops Reference (@HoopsReference) February 1, 2018
Simmons led them all in RPG, APG, SPG, BPG, and FG%
Simmons was not picked
Goran Dragic must be better than all 3 of these guys #HereTheyCome https://t.co/RbnokgkTyJ
