It will be nice to see them both play on the national stage.

Kemba should be Rondo's replacement.

They already named Lopez his replacement.

Not that it matters much, but which guys would start over Kemba? Irving and Wall are pretty obvious but would Rubio or Lin or anyone else start or get more PT than Kemba?

Well you have to remember, it's not rookies vs sophomores anymore. The players are drafted onto teams, so it's a mix of both on both teams.

Rubio isn't in the game and Irving might not be since he's in the ASG. Even if he is in the Rising Stars game, he won't play too much. And I'd say Kemba is having a better year than Wall and Lin, but he doesn't have the same hype those guys have so it's hard to tell.

Depending on how the teams are picked, he should get a healthy dose of minutes either way

I was looking at the wrong roster btw. I was looking at 2012 rosters. But I would imagine Irving and Lillard would be on different teams. I don't think any of the other guys would get more PT than Kemba though.

Kemba and MKG both on #TeamShaq, Kemba got randomly assigned.

Should be a fun game to watch. Not sure how Shaq's team won't out run Chuck's.

TeamShaq
Damian Lillard (Portland)
Kyrie Irving (Cleveland)
Andre Drummond (Detroit)
Klay Thompson (Golden State)
Harrison Barnes (Golden State)
Chandler Parsons (Houston)
Dion Waiters (Cleveland)
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (Charlotte)
Tyler Zeller (Cleveland)
Kemba Walker (Charlotte)

TeamChuck
Anthony Davis (New Orleans)
Kenneth Faried (Denver)
Kawhi Leonard (San Antonio)
Bradley Beal (Washington)
Ricky Rubio (Minnesota)
Tristan Thompson (Cleveland)
Nikola Vucevic (Orlando)
Brandon Knight (Detroit)
Isaiah Thomas (Sacramento)
Alexey Shved (Minnesota)

Kemba on the same team as Irving and Lillard? That's crap.

Also, Barkley not drafting Kemba is stupid and really makes me mad. Kemba won't see the court much now even though Irving won't play much if at all. That really irritates me. I hope he goes off when he is in.
