NBA All-Star Weekend is officially underway as the Celebrity Game and Rising Stars Challenge took place in Chicago on Friday night.
While Duke had no ties to the Celebrity Game, two of the most recent former Blue Devils took the floor in the Rising Stars Challenge in Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett.
Williamson, a South Carolina native, played for Team USA while Barrett, a Canada native, played for Team World.
Both players had injury concerns coming into the game as Williamson has only played in ten NBA games due to a meniscus injury to begin his career and Barrett was dealing with an ankle injury weeks before the challenge.
