Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert will add a very special piece to their legacies tomorrow night as they take the floor as NBA All-Stars. They both took some time today (and this weekend as a whole) to bask in the All-Star spotlight and talk about how much it means to them to be NBA All-Stars.

You really couldn’t have picked two better guys to represent the Utah Jazz. Both of them have been very vocal in terms of how much they want to represent for good the Jazz, the organization, and it’s fans. Although the Jazz don’t have any players participating in any All-Star festivities tonight in the Skills Challenge, Dunk Contest, or Three-Point Competition (Bojan Bogdanovic should be there smh), Rudy and Donovan will surely be in attendance to get a front-row seat at tonight’s action.

The All-Star game itself will go through a bit of a makeover with different rules and format of play. Here’s an overview of the new format, as well as rosters for both Team Antetokounmpo and Team LeBron.

What to watch for

All-Star DPOY in the House

Troy Wayrynen-USA TODAY Sports

For the first time in three years, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year will be in the All-Star game. How will Rudy defend in tomorrow night’s game? You can’t really expect him to be contesting every single dunk (because there’s going to be like 500), but it’s going to be really interesting to see how the game changes when Rudy comes in. Knowing his competitive nature, it’s hard to imagine him playing any differently in the All-Star game tomorrow night.

Spida Senses

We’re going to see some insane dunks in tomorrow night’s All-Star game. How many of them will come from Donovan Mitchell? Remember what he did the last time he participated in a game during All-Star weekend?

Mandatory Highlight

Here’s a couple highlights from some of the Utah Jazz All-Stars over the years.

Game Thread Ground Rules

Welcome to the SLC Dunk Game Thread.

Dunkers know how this thing works, but for you lurkers ready to make the jump to Dunker, we have a few guidelines. Remember to follow our community guidelines (no swearing, trolling, excessive use of Jerry Sloan’s name in vain, no personal attacks, no debates about Utah liquor laws, etc.). Remember to have fun. Anyone who dare blasphemes that Tim Duncan was a Power Forward (this means you, Pounding the Rock), Ben Simmons can hit threes, Gordon Hayward should not be booed, Donovan Mitchell is Monta Ellis 2.0, men should never cry, or John Stockton is not the best point guard of all-time will receive an automatic ban. Just kidding. But seriously.
