Brook Lopez to replace Rondo on All-Star team
Brook Lopez - C - Brooklyn Nets
Jan. 30, 2013 - 5:05 PM ET
Brook Lopez will replace Rajon Rondo (torn ACL) on the Eastern Conference All-Star team.
Lopez is in the midst of a career year and was considered one of the biggest "snubs" when the All-Star reserves were announced last week. While he likely won't replace Rondo in the starting lineup, the All-Star selection is a nice achievement for the Nets center. Since Rondo was voted in as a starter, it'll be up to the East coach to pick his replacement in the lineup.
