Over the years, players have reacted angrily to being snubbed from the all-star game, but nobody has ever reacted quite like Rudy Gobert.

The Utah Jazz center, who is posting career-high averages in points and rebounds this season, talked with reporters on Friday and he had to fight back tears as he discussed not being added to the team.

Rudy grew increasingly emotional speaking with the media about his All-Star snub. Said his mom called him crying. Said he wrote and deleted several messages on social media. Finally, he grew too emotional to speak, and walked off, wiping away tears. pic.twitter.com/UkFX2nUrt8

Golden State’s Draymond Green, a three-time All-Star, and Andre Iguodala, a one-time All-Star, didn’t seem to have the same reaction as fans, because they both took to Twitter and mocked him for crying.
