Jackson Emery to participate in Jimmer Fredette all-star games

PROVO — Jackson Emery, BYU's all-time steals leader, will be joining his former backcourt mate, Jimmer Fredette, for a pair of exhibition games billed as Jimmer's All-Stars.

Emery has opted not to pursue a professional basketball career, which means the two exhibition contests on Sept. 21 at the Maverick Center and Sept. 22 at the Marriott Center in Provo, will be his only appearances as a pro.

Others who are committed to play in the two games include Kawhi Leonard, Kemba Walker and Nolan Smith.

Both games are scheduled to tip off at 7 p.m. Tickets are on sale now at the respective venues' box offices, websites or by phone.
