San Francisco – Everything seemed a little surreal with the recruit of the Dalton Knecht Lakers – at the end of A few wild weeksHe heads for the star match, where he will face his teammate Lebron James on one of the biggest stages in the NBA.
“We are all about to play our first All Star game, it’s crazy. As a recruit,” Knecht said. “It’s going to be very fun. We’re going to try to go there and make the show.”
Sparked by Knecht in the first game and the Recruit and MVP Rising Stars Stephon Castle Spurs overnight, the Mally named C team won the mini-tournoi at four NBA Rising Stars teams on Friday evening. The group is now going to the star match on Sunday (for another mini-turnroad).
“Whether I win (MVP) or not, I felt like it was a big goal of being an All-Star,” said Castle, adding that he thinks that this year could slightly Increase your chances of being named a whole -Star in the future.
Could these rising stars make the upheaval on Sunday? Perhaps, if for no other reason, they are likely to play hard while the regular all-stars go through the movements before a few days off. This Rising Stars team considers disruptors and now faces three All-Stars teams in the Funky New Mini Tournament Format for the All-Star 2025 game. They have talked about playing hard in an event that is not exactly known for this in recent years.
“We are going to try to win it,” said Knecht.
At least Friday evening, the format of the mini-tournoi sparked a better competition and a certain defense, although it came from recruits motivated by the chance to play on Sunday (and to win $ 25,000 per player). The players tried and there was a certain defense – not exactly the defense of the playoffs, but more than the matches of past stars (which, of course, is a low bar).
We will see if this takes place on Sunday and the NBA all-stars.
The C team was good on Friday evening. The famous Keynote George had a quick eight and finished with a summit of 10 for team C during his opening victory. In the championship, they clashed against the Rocket Sheppard of the Rockets and a team made up of G-League stars. It was a back and forth match, but Castle intensified, and his team advanced.
On Sunday, we will see if Castle and his teammates can be the disruptors they see.
