The NBA announced its All-Star reserves on Thursday as the league prepares for All-Star weekend in Feburary. San Antonio's second-year superstar Victor Wembanyama became the youngest player in franchise history and the youngest center selected to the game since Shaquille O'Neal was selected at 21-years old in 1993.

Wembanyama's averaged 24.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.9 blocks, 3.7 assists and 1.1 steals per game this season while shooting just over 35% from the 3-point line. It's Wembanyama's first All-Star game selection and he's the first Spur selected since Dejounte Murray was chosen in the 2021-22 season.
