You saying no Kyle Anderson?
You saying no Kyle Anderson?
I guess the NBA is afraid that Fathead could delay the game ratings?
Too bad bertans doesn't have much playing time are else he'd be in there I'm sure.
World team going to crush it.
I kinda miss the rookies vs sop res format tbh...
Since Kyle is in his 3rd season and the game includes only players in their 1st or 2nd seasons, yes.
lol, plays good first game of the season, nice fast break dunks and blocks, gets into all-star weekend
but in all seriousness, good for him. He's come really far, happy for the dude
Great story for JSimms, good for him.
Certainly deserving.
Congratulations to JSimms.

World team gonna run train imo
I'm just glad TJ McConnell didn't make it.
Definitely happy for Simmons. Starting by paying $150 for an Austin Spurs tryout a few years ago, to being a part of NBA's All Star Weekend (the Rising Stars and hopefully Dunk Contest). It may not mean much to other players or fans, but I'm sure it means a lot to Simmons.
3rd most consistent bench player behind Lee and Mills, tbh..
Happy for him![]()
is he the oldest to participate all-time?
Didn't someone say he was in the dunk contest too?
No kidding, it feels like this is at least his third year
Yeah! He got the recognition he deserves. Happy for him.
Yeah, it is indeed odd that he seems like he's been with the Spurs forever!
That international team is gonna destroy the domestic schlubs.
Me too even though it was usually a blowout in favor of the sop res. Though the rookies did win a couple times, such as the Dejuan Blair year (09-10) and the Tony Parker year (01-02).
Good for Simmons! I can't imagine how many times he must've felt like he was chasing a dream that wasn't possible, how many people told him to get a real job, how many people quoted statistics on his odds of making the league, and now here he is living his dream! One of my favorite NBA stories of all time! Give them some nasty J Simms for Spurs nation!
