barnes should just rest.

My money would be on this years rookies to roll on the sophomores.

ummummm- I guess this is gonna show how much I know/care about all star weekend, but what is the rising stars challenge? is it an actual 5 on 5 game or is it like a shooting contest or something? I guess it is replacing the rookies vs sophmores game because the sophmores would hand it to the rookies every yr.

I think it's a 5-on-5 game with drafted teams of Rookies and Sophomores.

Nice to see both our young stars got in. Hopefully Klay lights it up for revenge of not being selected in last years rising star game. I agree Barnes should rest but people don't play defense in this type of games doubt his injury can get worse because of this. But injuries can happen anywhere I guess. If he wants to stay on the safe-side he could could decline the invitation but I highly doubt that.
Looking forward to this rising stars game hopefully both do great!
