In all my years as an NBA fan, I have rarely seen NBA stars and high-profile rookies play in the pre-season games until the 2023-2024 season. What changed?

Stars have always played in preseason games. There is ALWAYS risk of injury, you risk injuries in the weight room, in practice, or in scrimmages as well. Heck you have guys getting injured in their own homes walking around. You can’t just put a bubble wrap around players
