NBA All-Star Rising Stars Challenge Prediction
Team Pau is by far the strongest roster on paper. With current Rookie of the Year frontrunners Paolo Banchero and Bennedict Mathurin alongside last year’s Rookie of the Year Scottie Barnes, they’re favorites for good reason.
Talents such as Jose Alvarado, Jaden Ivey and Keegan Murray will also suit up for Team Pau on Friday night as they take on Team Deron at 7pm EST.
Our Prediction – Team Pau to win the Rising Stars Challenge @ +170
