Rising Stars is signicantly better basketball than the actual All-Star game

I mean VJ Edgecombe is just a flat out superstar the rest of these guys don’t deserve to be on the same court as him

This shot will be in his Hall of Fame highlight reel in 25 years

Omg his teammates are awful

All-Star weekend is so back this is special hoops

It doesn’t matter if he’s playing in an NBA game or a Rising Stars game, VJ Edgecombe just makes winning plays

We just watched VJ Edgecombe announce his NBA stardom on a national stage

HIM.

What a journey man

Need a clean sweep on All Star Weekend to make up for the past 10 days. Maxey 3PT contest tomorrow, ASG MVP Sunday
