5. Which team do you think will win the Skills Challenge?

Menze: I think it will be an all-Western Conference final with Team 2 in Goran Dragic and Reggie Jackson pulling out a slight victory over Team 1 in Damian Lillard and Trey Burke.

Donoho: Damian Lillard and Trey Burke. Lillard won the event last year, and Burke should do well in this event. I like those two as a team.

Morton: I expect the Damian Lillard and Trey Burke duo to take the competition by storm. Both are incredibly explosive athletes and blazing quick with the ball in their hands.

Perry: Dragic and Jackson. This duo should be able to tear the course up with relative ease and they deny Damian Lillard his second straight title.

Blue: I’m going with Goran Dragic and Reggie Jackson. Dragic has always been a bit underrated as a player and his ball skills is one of his best attributes. Reggie Jackson has a lot of talent as well, there are even some videos out there of Reggie teaching ball handling skills. Those video views may skyrocket if he and Dragic win the challenge.

Coverage of tonight’s festivities will be televised on TNT starting at 8 p.m. (ET) with the Skills Challenge going down as the second event following the Shooting Stars Challenge. Click here for the Skills Challenge rosters.
