LOS ANGELES - Clippers center Chris Kaman will replace the Trail Blazers' injured Brandon Roy in this weekend's All-Star Game.
The 7-foot native of Grand Rapids, Mich., will be making his first All-Star appearance in seven NBA seasons, all with the Clippers. He is the league's top-scoring center, averaging 20.2 points per game.
The Clippers drafted Kaman in the sixth round in 2003 following his junior season at Central Michigan, where he led the Chippewas to Mid-American Conference championships in 2001 and 2003. He is the third CMU player to be named an NBA All-Star, joining Dan Roundfield and Dan Majerle.
