The NBA All-Star Game is going to look a little different this year, and might even feature G League stars. The new format came after longtime media scrutiny and a history of lopsided scores. What was a competitive scrimmage against the game's greatest was slowly turning into a cardio session for the basketball world's elite.

Two former Alabama standouts have been selected for the Rising Stars at NBA All-Star Weekend showcase of the league’s top young players, but only one of them will get to play. The NBA announced the player pool for the event on Tuesday, including Crimson Tide alumni Brandon Miller and JD Davison.

The player pool for the Rising Stars has been revealed, while Mac McClung will try to win a third straight dunk contest.
