While the rest of Yves Missi’s teammates go their separate ways to do their own thing during the NBA All-Star break, he’ll head to San Francisco. The New Orleans Pelicans rookie is scheduled to be the only member of his team participating in All-Star weekend, which starts Friday and concludes Sunday. Missi was selected to compete in Friday’s Rising Stars Game, which features some of the league’s best rookies, second-year players and G-League stars. “Just a great feeling to be in that game,” Missi said in late January when named to the team. “(My teammates) are happy for me, and I’m just grateful.”
