Paul Millsap has been named an Eastern Conference reserve for the 2014 NBA All-Star Game.

Millsap is arguably having the best year of his career and has become crucial to the Hawks in Al Horford's absence. He's averaging 17.8 points, eight rebounds, and three assists per game in 33.8 average minutes of play and was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week on Monday.

Congrats to Paul on the much-deserved honor!
