Indiana forward Danny Granger has been dealing with a sore right knee lately, but has vowed that he'll play in Sunday's All-Star Game regardless.

"No chance. I'll hobble through that game if I have to," Granger said. "No way am I bagging that one."

Pacers coach Jim O'Brien issued support for Granger's decision.

"I would second that. You don't make the All-Star team every year," O'Brien said. "His knee is not an issue that him going out and playing a quarter and-a-half is going to go out and impact his knee."
