Last year, in front of their hometown fans, the Indiana Pacers won the Skills Challenge. A trio of Tyrese Haliburton, Bennedict Mathurin, and Myles Turner beat the first-overall picks (Paolo Banchero, VIctor Wembanyama, Anthony Edwards ), and a case of young All-Stars ( Trae Young, Scottie Barnes, Tyrese Maxey).

Cunningham and Mobley were easy picks, while Siakam followed pretty quickly as the Pacers’ most important two-way player.

The Philadelphia 76ers rank near the bottom of the power rankings while the Detroit Pistons are surging in the East.

All-Star voting ended Monday, and for the first time, this Power Rankings host was given a ballot. The coming weeks will see a slow reveal of all the All-Star Weekend participants, with starters set to be announced Thursday night.
