Scoot Henderson, the promising star guard for the Portland Trail Blazers, will miss the 2025 Rising Stars game due to a right ankle sprain sustained during a matchup against the Denver Nuggets. Henderson's absence will be felt at the All-Star weekend as he was expected to showcase his talent among the league's up-and-coming stars. In his place, Denver Nuggets guard Julian Strawther will step in, providing an opportunity for him to shine.
