Rising Stars Game 2: Team Vince vs Team T-Mac Picks and Prediction

Team T-Mac, entering as the 2.5-point favorite with the tournament's most balanced roster, faces underdog Team Vince in Rising Stars Semifinal Game 2 at Intuit Dome on Friday, February 13, tipping off at 9:55 PM ET on Peacock. With Team T-Mac boasting the race's second-hottest Rookie of the Year candidate in Charlotte's Kon Knueppel (18.9 PPG, 183 threes, 3-Point Contest participant), five experienced sophomores, and three elite shooters converting better than 43% from deep, this matchup pits Tracy McGrady's talent-stacked squad featuring four top-six draft picks against Vince Carter's younger, more athletic Team Vince—led by Philadelphia's clutch-scoring rookie VJ Edgecombe (14.9 PPG, 64 total clutch points) but hampered by just two top-10 selections and late injury replacement Carter Bryant filling in for the scratched Cedric Coward, as both teams chase a race-to-40 victory and a championship berth against the Team Melo vs Team Austin winner in the 2026 Castrol Rising Stars tournament.

Rising Stars Game 1: Team Melo vs Team Austin Picks and Prediction

Team Melo, anchored by reigning Rookie of the Year Stephon Castle and featuring four top-5 draft picks, faces Team Austin's G League squad at Intuit Dome on Friday, February 13, tipping off at 9:00 PM ET. With Carmelo Anthony's roster navigating the loss of franchise cornerstone Cooper Flagg (foot) but still boasting Castle fresh off a 40-point triple-double and Portland's Donovan Clingan coming off a 23-point, 18-rebound performance last night, this semifinal pits a talent-stacked NBA rookie squad dealing with chemistry issues and injury losses against Austin Rivers' underdog G League group riding chemistry from playing together all season, hungry for revenge after last year's championship game heartbreak where Castle hit the game-winner, as both teams operate on opposite trajectories, NBA lottery pedigree versus developmental league proving ground, in the 2026 Castrol Rising Stars tournament race to 40 points.
