Multiple Warriors players will represent the organization at NBA All-Star Weekend next month.

After superstar guard Steph Curry was named an NBA All-Star Game starter, second-year center Trayce Jackson-Davis and was one of the young players selected to the 2025 Rising Stars Game, which takes place on Feb. 14 in San Francisco.

Warriors rookie guard Pat Spencer also was selected as a G League representative from the Santa Cruz Warriors.

This will be Jackson-Davis’ first and only Rising Stars Game nod, after Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski represented Golden State in last year’s contest.

In 44 games (36 starts) this season, Jackson-Davis is averaging 8.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game on 57.1-percent shooting in 20 minutes per contest.

He and Spencer will be the first to represent the Warriors during the weekend’s festivities before Curry and his All-Star teammates take the floor on Sunday, Feb. 16 at Chase Center.
