Neat Sneaks! Rising Stars Challenge *Jeremy Lin, Earthquake Blake, John Wall, Rubio + MORE*

Kyrie Irving proved why he's the brightest star among all rookies and apparently even among sophomores.

Jeremy Lin and Blake Griffin had limited minutes in the game because they had just come off a back to back, so this is their third straight game and Steve Kerr wanted to give them some rest. That could be Team Shaq's excuse but you can't deny Kyrie's magnificent performance going 8 of 8 from long distance and John Wall just going crazy with the dunks (he should be in the dunk contest). It was an overall awesome game to watch with Rubio showing some mad dribbling skills along with solid performances from Paul George and DeMarcus Cousins as well.
