For the second straight year, Milwaukee Bucks swingman Khris Middleton pulled double duty for NBA All-Star Weekend.
After having underperformed in the 3-Point Shootout in Toronto in 2016, and Charlotte last year, Middleton took his talents to the Taco Bell Skills Challenge with his second straight All-Star selection.
Along with Middleton, the event also included fellow All-Stars Bam Adebayo, Domantas Sabonis, Pascal Siakam, and Jayson Tatum. And Patrick Beverley, Spencer Dinwiddie, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander filled out the remaining participants.
First, Middleton was matched up against Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder for the opening round as he was listed among the forward/big men portion of the bracket.
