Nikola Vucevic to participate in Skills Challenge

Nikola Vucevic is getting a second chance to show off his skills.

Not only will Vooch take part in his second All-Star game this weekend, he also gets a shot at redemption in the Skills Challenge.

Vucevic faces some stiff competition with a field that includes Luka Doncic, Chris Paul, Domantas Sabonis, Julius Randle and Robert Covington.

Vooch had an early exit during the 2019 Skills Challenge, falling to fellow big man Nikola Jokic. It was the three-point shot that cost Vooch the opportunity to advance. He had a slight lead on Jokiu0107 entering the final shot but Vucevic missed his first three-point attempt while Jokiu0107 drained his to advance.
