The NBA All-Star Game brings together players who are not used to sharing locker rooms with each other. Sunday night saw a hilarious moment between Victor Wenbanyama of the Spurs and Nikola Jokic of the Nuggets.
The two NBA stars are performing in “Chuck's Global Star” in this year's new NBA All-Star Game format. Before Sunday's festivities began, Jokic was caught off guard when he saw the second-year centre beat the book. His locker – the NBA social media team caught the exchange.
“Did you really bring the book?” Jokic asked Wenbanyama in shock.
“Yeah, I read it before every game,” replied Wenbanyama.
Jokic couldn't contain his laughter as he tried to explain to him the book Wenbañama had brought him with him.
Read before – or in some cases, it appears that AJ Brown is gaining steam from Pro Threat after he tends to read the sidelines during the Eagles game.
Brown was reading Jim Murphy's book “Inner Excellence” when the Eagles wildcard won the Packers, and Fox Camera was doing that to him.

“It gives me a sense of peace,” Brown told reporters after the game. “It's a book that brings me all the games. My teammates call it a recipe. It's the first time I've heard you get it on camera. It's not the first game. There There are a lot of points, and there are a lot of mental parts about that.”
It is unclear whether Wembanyama's pre-match literature selection is motivational or simply for fun.
It was a busy weekend for the young star after finding himself caught up in the all-star game skills competition controversy after being disqualified from an evening timing event for not taking legal shots during the competition.
