Poor Sabonis is going to have to "defend" Kuzma in transition and on the perimeter!

Is the NBA ducking De'Aaron Fox for not having him on the Rising Stars roster? More at 11!

- They clearly did it because of Lavar Ball. It's all about Lonzo ducking him again!
- But, they would play on the same side!
- They can never be on the same side...

We may not have any players in the ASG, but we have the American side of the JV game totally covered! That bodes very well for us IMO, and should help attract some FA's if not this summer then by next summer for sure.

I think it will be the second year in a row that I don't watch the ASG, it's a joke until players start to take it a little more seriously...

so Aaron Gordon withdraws from the dunk contest.....replaced by Donovan Mitchell....not sure that increases Larry's chances much....he has an uphill battle just to get to the Finals...

Donovan Mitchell
Dennis Smith Jr.
Larry Nance Jr.
Victor Oladipo

Larry's size can work in his favor in that lineup. Plus with his big hands I think he can pull off some one-handed dunks that those smaller guys can't.

Based on what we're seeing, Lakers have at least 4 all stars in the game.

LBJ
PG13
Klay
Butler.

Apparently all of them are future Lakers but they just don't know it yet.
