Rui Hachimura is a member of the Los Angeles Lakers, which is a win for the Lakers front office — "Look! We're doing something!" — but how much of a win was that for the Lakers? Does it change much of anything for them on the court? Corey Robinson and Kurt Helin of NBC Sports discuss that, then talk about the Orlando Magic and the return of Jonathan Isaac to the floor. Corey's Jukebox ties together the Magic and the Phantom of the Opera, and from there the duo get into Kurt's selections for the NBA All-Star Game, both starters and reserves. Plus, who would you want to star as if you were in a movie?

Julius Randle, of the New York Knicks, drops 17 first-quarter points on the Cavs, on the way to a 105-103 victory.  After a quiet first half, Donovan Mitchell, takes over the 4th, but the Cavs miss two chances to tie the game on the final possession.  Bob Schmidt, of Fox Sports Radio, discusses what went wrong (the bench), what went right (the starters), and the Lakers acquisition of Rui Hachimura.  Is trade season in full swing?
