All-Star Saturday Night

Make your picks for All-Star Saturday Night. We just saw the Rookies with a surprise win over the Sophomores last night where John Wall set a Rookie Challenge record with 22 assists including some crazy ones to Blake Griffin (posted below). DeMarcus Cousins went for 33-14. In a losing effort James Harden (who was a late replacement for Tyreke Evans) dropped a smooth 30.

Business picks up tonight with 3 more events. Here are the participants with my winner in bold.

Skills Challenge:
Chris Paul, Hornets
Russell Westbrook, Thunder
Derrick Rose, Bulls
Stephen Curry, Warriors
John Wall, Wizards

3-Point Shootout:
Paul Pierce, Celtics
Ray Allen, Celtics
Kevin Durant, Thunder
James Jones, Heat
Dorrell Wright, Warriors
Boobie Gibson, Cavs

Slam Dunk Contest:
Blake Griffin, Clippers
Serge Ibaka, Thunder
DeMar DeRozen, Raptors
JaVale McGee, Wizards

Should be a great night.
