Any info if this is the first MU player on the 'sophomore' team?
Nevermind, just read that it started in 2000...
He is. And Wade is the only Marquette rookie to play in the game.
I remember Wade had a sweet full extension alley-oop in the game.
Still amazes me that Wes has climbed so far in 1.5 years. He'll probably start for the sophomores. Also, isn't he the highest paid 2nd year player?

Yes he is, higher than Blake Griffin... at least for now!

I believe he is the highest paid 2nd year player in the history of NBA. Guys like DWade and Lebron James included.
Here's a pretty sweet promo video of Wes on the Blazers site: "The case to send Wesley Matthews to Los Angeles for the Rookie/Sophomore game"

And to think how CTC failed to use this weapon. Unforgiveable.

I know. But he's really maximizing Tom Pritchard's capacity, so cut him some slack.
