Zaide should be in the lineup instead.

Zaide is not eligible as the all star game is for seniors only and the invitees are generally seniors who will not be drafted in the NBA draft. So I hope Zaide never plays in this game because that could mean he is being drafted.

It was a joke. A couple of Scoopers thought Shaka shoulda benched Jop for Zaide, even though it was never gonna happen.

It's nice for Jop, but it is a game limited ( basically ) to Seniors that will be playing overseas next year.

I was always hoping Jop got invited to the NBA combine, but it does not look like that is happening. The combine is at Wintrust and we all know how well Jop shoots at Wintrust.

Jop did have his moments.  And loved soft rims.  He improved tremendously on the defensive end.  The truth is the wild inconsistency was across the board on our roster this year.

Would be a lottery pick if they moved the NBA combine to Wintrust

Every player, no matter the level, loves soft rims  ;)

Making every shot is a good way to make an impression.......even at an all star game.

Even got rewarded for being all over the place with that little giftwrapped layup off a turnover.

Nice. Getting invited to Portsmouth is important. I wish Jop good fortune!
