    Tari is better than Jalen or Jabari yet he gets snubbed, just goes to show that these things aren't picked on merit.

    How many coaches had 3 rising stars selected? This is huge evidence of coach Silas's greatness.

    I hate the all star stuff, but happy for the guys and hope it helps their confidence.

    Last year's rising stars roster: 4 teams of 7: 28 total. Each team had a g-league player. It's possible if they didn't include those four guys, Tari would have made it.

    Yep I selfishly wanted him picked instead of the curveball selection of JC

    It would be nice to hit on even one made in the top 10 though.

    I agree! The Rockets should give Sengun a max contract and release everyone else on the roster. He doesn't need lesser humans continually getting in his way and denying him his rightful seat in the Hall of Fame!

    Last year was 12 rookies, 12 sophomores, 4 G Leaguers.
    This year 11 rookies, 10 sophomores, 7 G leaguers.

    Tari certainly should be within 11 rookies. Biased NBA.

    Important to note is that we are the only team with 3 players this year.

    No Pistons, no Magic, no Thunder. Just the Rockets.
