(WNFL) – It is expected that the Milwaukee Bucks all-star drought is likely to continue when the reserves are announced on Thursday. But the NBA announced that second-year forward Jabari Parker would compete in the Rising Stars Challenge, a game featuring first and second-year players. The 20-year-old Parker was named to play for the U.S. team against a World squad headlined by New York Knicks rookie center Kristaps Porzingis. The all-star weekend is scheduled Feb. 12-through-14 in Toronto. The game will be played at the Air Canada Centre on Feb. 12 as part of the all-star weekend, and it will be televised by TNT.
