Carter Bryant will replace injured Grizzlies’ forward Cedric Coward in the event, joining Dylan Harper and Stephon Castle. Carter will be part of Team Vince, which Vince Carter coaches.

Carter’s addition brings the Spurs’ participants in the event back to three, since two-way player David Jones-Garcia was originally slated to represent the G League team before having to bow out due to injury. ⭐️ The 2026 @CastrolUSA Rising Stars rosters ⭐️Watch the next generation of young stars in action TONIGHT at 9:00pm/et on Peacock! pic.twitter.com/yo2jMIjH4B— NBA (@NBA) February 13, 2026 Bryant was likely named to the team because he was already in Los Angeles to participate in the dunk contest, but the rookie has done a lot to bring positive attention to his play lately.
