Edit: Zion voted as injury replacement for Carter Jr

NAW in and Hayes out is pretty wild.

Guess it's more to do with the US vs the World then just who is most deserving though.


Selfishly, I'm all for Zion sitting out but if he wants to play, let the dude play.

Probably so as the world team has some "stretches" on it. Cannot see Luka playing seeing as how he is on All Star team.

Even with the small sample size Zion is clearly our best rookie. We don’t need to see 50 games of Zion to know that. Hayes should be on the all rookie squad though.

That explains it, but Hayes should still be out there

hayes is clearly one of the 5 best US rookies. whether he's one of the 5 best 2nd year players too i guess is debateable

in terms of rookies alone, Hayes & Brandon Clarke/Hachimura is your undisputed starting front court



but fwiw all 5 of of the USA front court players (4 excluding Zion) play 10 more mpg than Hayes. still the Pels have 2 out of 10 rookies in the rising stars team. not bad

Luka. I get it he is in his second year, but if you're in discussions about one of the best players in the league already. Are you a rising star? Or are you already a star? He's the all star team too.

So Zion is playing in place of Wendell Carter, right?

I’m not suprised. It’s was either going to be Hayes or Zion. That made it an easy decision for them.
