Congrats and good luck Clarkson!

Although I would think Russell would also fit this bill but I bet he will participate next season.

Either way, bring it home Clarkson!

That's cool... Still not watching any of the All-Star festivities... Not a big fan of the league anymore. #VetoReasons

(Announcer during skills challenge)

Announcer: Jordan Clarkson weaves in and out of the cones with pornstar-like control..

He steps up to the passing section and....wait...he's pushin the rack of balls past the passing section.

Now he's grabbing each ball from the rack and shooting 20 foot pullups off the dribble.

I've never seen this before!


Jk. Congrats JC!

He's finally getting the recognition he deserves. I'm not surprised, his work ethic is off the charts. This will be one of many All Star appearances for Clarkson.

Let me ask a valid question. Clarkson winning the skill challenge Kobe couldn't win, is he the most skilled Laker ever?????????????

Any chance JC shines in the skills challenge and people (not just our people) question why we don't have a better record?

Yes, this is a BS attack.

i have not watched this event in a while, but has big men always been included? Seems like they will be at a disadvantage. Clarkson should have as good of a chance to win as anyone in the field.

I rarely watch the all-star game these days but always watch all-star sat night with the competitions. Much more exciting, especially the 3pt contest.
