Tucker (11 points, 10 rebounds) and Marcus Morris (10 points) scored a two-figure number of points as well.

In the European duel of the game organisers "Gogi" outplayed the Spaniard Rubio, who during his 36 minutes of play hit seven points (2/6), and had eight rebounds and eight assists.

Dragić is being mentioned with increasing frequency as a candidate for All-Star match next month in New Orleans. The Slovenian national team player has almost no chance to be voted among the first five players, but following the injury of Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook his name is listed in the short list of basketball players which can be later enlisted by the trainer.

Due to the outstanding game of Phoenix the match was broadcasted on National Televison, so that the whole of the USA were able to see the skill of Dragić.
