Lillard, the Milwaukee guard, was announced Friday as one of the entrants in this year's 3-point contest to be held at All-Star Saturday Night in San Francisco on Feb. 15. Wembanyama, the second-year San Antonio star, will be one of eight players in the Skills Challenge at All-Star Saturday. That field was also revealed on Friday.
