Marshon Brooks scored eight points and handed out three assists in the Rising Stars Challenge Friday, helping "Team Chuck" beat "Team Shaq. Although there were highlights, like an alley-oop to John Wall, there were two lowlights too: a hesitant and ultimately failed attempt at a windmill dunk early and then an airballed three off Reggie Miller-style drop back.
Deron Williams had joked before the game that Brooks would be fined $20 every time he passed the ball. "He’s getting fined if he passes the ball because he doesn’t pass to us," D-Will deadpanned.
