Ever since the 2022 NBA All-Star starter list has been announced, fans have been amazed to witness the name of Golden State Warriors’ Andrew Wiggins making way. Although the 26-years-old has truly deserved his place after performing game after game for the Dubs, it seems like along with his teammates, he received a huge boost from K-Pop sensation BamBam during the start of the year to get heaps of votes.

Given that Andrew Wiggins is the least statically equipped guy on the starter list, he is not the only first-time All-Star in the list. Memphis Grizzlies’ JA Morant, who has been among the MVP contenders has also made his way in the Western Conference top-five candidates. Apart from these two, LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Nikola Jokic are the remaining players.

Now to those who are not aware of BamBam’s contribution in Andrew Wiggin’s All-Star journey, based on a report from Alex Shultz from SFGate, the Warriors made the shrewd move to bring onboard K-Pop star BamBam earlier this year. He made a post on Instagram announcing his partnership with the team as a “Global Ambassador” and quickly got to work.
