The Knicks will have a representative at All-Star weekend.

Canadian-born rookie RJ Barrett was named to the World Team for the NBA Rising Stars game on the first night of the league’s three-day midseason showcase event on Feb. 14 in Chicago.

The No. 3 overall pick in the draft will team up with international stars such as Luka Doncic (Slovenia) and Deandre Ayton (Bahamas) on the World team versus a United States team featuring fellow rookies Zion Williamson and Ja Morant and second-year Atlanta guard Trae Young. Second-year Knicks center Mitchell Robinson was not named to the American squad.
