Hugo Gonzalez has been one of the 10 best rookies in the NBA this season and he should have made the Rising Stars Challenge. If you are going to make me kick one of the 10 players who made it off the team, I’d choose Murray-Boyles or Nets guard Egor Dënim. The 28th pick in the draft has shown he is going to be a winning player for years to come.

The top rookies and 2nd-year standouts selected to compete during All-Star Weekend will be drafted onto teams Tuesday (7 ET, Peacock).

Egor Demin's contributions for the Nets early this season earned him a spot in the NBA Rising Star's competition at All-Star weekend.

There will be a fourth team in the Rising Stars challenge, which NBC and Peacock analyst Austin Rivers will lead. Here's everything to know about the event, from the teams, how to watch and more: The Rising Stars challenge is set for Friday, Feb. 13 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
