Orlando - Bucks rookie point guard Brandon Jennings will have a busy all-star weekend.

Not only will Jennings play in the Rookie Challenge game on Friday night, but he has been named to compete in the Skills Challenge on Saturday night in Dallas.

Jennings will compete against three past champions in the guard competition, meeting defending champ Derrick Rose, 2005 champion Steve Nash and 2008 champion Deron Williams.

The Skills Challenge features four players competing in a two-round timed obstacle course which has dribbling, passing and shooting stations.

That could be a lot of fun to watch.

Oh man..that's a helluva lineup. If he pulls it out that's really credible.

Great line-up. 3 previous champions, and a rookie who's proven he can shoot and pass, and run? No idea who will win this one. If Rose can hit the jump-shot, it's him, but that's a big if.

Would love to see BJ win this.

It be a repeat of the story line of last year's contest - promising rookie beating the vets. That would be fun.

That really is a great line-up for this event. All of those guys can hit the jump shot. I really think it will come down to the bounce pass.

i'll be rooting for jennings but i have a feeling nash wins this. just because the young guys never really sprint as hard as they could and then if they miss a few shots or a few passes, Nash would win it pretty easily.
