Are Kanter and Burks not in the rising stars challenge?

How are they chosen? By people Barkley and Shaq think have the chance to beome stars? Have to have played so many minutes?

Any one have a roster?

I could be wrong, but I think the NBA chooses who goes then Chuck and Shaq pick from that pool of players.
 
I'm watching it now. No, neither Jazz guy is in it. Not sure why.

Some of the 2nd year players include Faried, Kawhi Leonard, Klay Thompson, Isaiah Thompson, Brandon Knight, Kemba Walker, Kyrie Irving, Nicholas Vucevic, Ricky Rubio, Tristan Thompson and Chandler Parsons
 
Awesome. They see so little game time that they cannot even get into Rising Stars.
Shhh...this is all part of the "Corbinite Maneuver" devised by KOC. If no one knows about Favors, Kanter, Hayward and Burks, then we can re-sign them on the cheap once their rookie contracts are up. Once those players are under lock and key for another 5 years, the Jazz will still have money available for FA's to go out and get a quality PG and other key veterans. Then a championship is all but assured. Us fans just need to be patient and continue to support the team by buying season tickets and merchandise.
 
Too bad Cle. Didn't go with the fools gold and take Derrick Williams #1 in the draft, as Min already had there pg of the future. Dude has some sick ball handling skills. That dude is just crazy good.
 
Malone just mentioned that he doesn't know what the heck the Jazz are doing this year and that they should play Evans or cut him but don't leave him on the bench.
