Ricky Rubio provided the play of the game in the Rising Stars Challenge when he dribbled through DeMarcus Cousins’ legs and then tossed an alley-oop to Blake Griffin for a big dunk.
Mr. Cousins would get the last laugh as his team went on to win the game 146-133. Rookie Kyrie Irving was on fire going 8 for 8 from downtown and scoring a game high 34 points to lead Team Chuck past Team Shaq in the inaugural Rising Stars Challenge.
Last year’s Rookie Game MVP John Wall had a nice night for Team Chuck with 17 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds in the win.
