If Castle and Wembanyama’s all-star weekend selections weren’t enough to satisfy Spurs fans, NBA Insider Chris Haynes reports that Chris Paul is also participating in an event.

Paul and Wembanyama are partnering up to participate in the Kia Skills Challenge.

Wembanyama competed in the Skills Challenge in 2024 alongside Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero and Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards. However, a team of Indiana Pacers players won the competition.

NBA All-Star Weekend takes place this year in San Francisco from Feb 14-16.

The Slam Dunk Contest and the Skills Challenge are scheduled for Feb. 15. The NBA All-Star Game closes the festivities on Feb. 16.
