For the first All-Star Game of their young careers, Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen were at home in Cleveland. Winners with Evan Mobley of the Skills Challenge on Saturday evening, then teammates in Team LeBron on Sunday evening for the All-Star Game, the two men had a memorable weekend.
” It means a lot… I have dreamed of this moment all my life, so to live it at only 22 years old is really a nice feeling.” appreciated the young leader, who finished the game with 13 points (5/12) and 3 assists. ” It was really cool to be alongside all these great players.“
Same refrain with Jarrett Allen, who really struggled to realize that he was indeed an All-Star, in front of his home crowd. ” I realized when I got back to my hotel. This week has been quite fun. I moved a lot, I met new people. But honestly, it’s the kind of moment I wouldn’t trade for anything in the world. […] I’m one of the top 24 NBA players at All-Star Weekend this year. I’m excited, ready to just enjoy every moment.“
The pivot of Cleveland was notably able to exchange with Chris Paul. So at the Hornets, he too had experienced his first All-Star Game at home, and it was in New Orleans.
” He told me that it was a unique experience, especially to be able to go back to sleep in his own bed” was he having fun. ” I went to the Rising Stars Challenge, I was applauded as a spectator. It’s just nice to have our audience behind us as we just enjoy the festivities.“
The two Cavaliers, at 22 for Darius Garland and 23 for Jarrett Allen, logically received preferential treatment from Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse spectators, proud of their young people, symbols of the renewal of the franchise, after three difficult seasons following leaving LeBron James in the summer of 2018.
” I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long. It is really awesome. And it’s great to be at home, in the city we play for. Couldn’t ask for better concluded Darius Garland.
