Further proving the notion that the Kentucky men’s basketball program helps prepare its players for the NBA better than any other school, three former Wildcats – DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis, and John Wall – were selected for the 2016 NBA All-Star Game as reserves on Thursday night.
No college has more than two representatives in the NBA All-Star Game.
The former UK stars will compete in the NBA All-Star Game in the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on Feb. 14. The game will be televised by TNT. It’s the third time Davis and Wall have been named NBA All-Stars, while Cousins will make his second straight appearance.

Cousins not being a starter in this game is a disgrace and proves that it's just a show. Just because Kobe is old and can't play anymore is no reason to make vote him a starter. He should've retired two years ago.

Paul. I agree but would bet this just because Kobe is retiring and you can bet our Cuz will get his share of minutes.

What gets me is Rondo didn't make the team too as he leads in both assists and steals in the NBA and he doesn't get picked. He is also averaging a double-double.
