SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Utah Jazz president Steve Starks has made it public, he does not like the fact that Jazz center Rudy Gobert was not chosen as an NBA All-Star.

Starks made his displeasure public with a tweet soon after it was announced that Gobert did not make it as a Western Conference reserve.

While the starters and captains for the All-Star Game were selected by fan-vote, the reserves from each conference were selected by voting from the coaches in each conference.

The All-Star Game will take place Feb. 17 at 6 p.m. in Charlotte, N.C.
