Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will be at All-Star Weekend

The second year phenom and fan favorite out of the University of Arizona looks to come back strong after a terrible and unfortunate ankle fracture last season. Hollis-Jefferson was just showing what he could really be when he went down, but what he showed was impressive.

RHJ had nearly a steal and a half a game on top of six rebounds and six points. This preseason he is averaging up near eight points per game. If he can have a good defensive presence and good defensive numbers along with around 8-10 points a game, look for him to be in New Orleans this winter. Not as an All-Star but in the Rookie vs. Sophomore game.

In the future, though, RHJ will be an All-Star.
