Indianapolis, IN. The American Basketball Association (ABA) today named Katu Davis from the Detroit Panthers and Mike Parker from the Bellingham Slam to the ABA All-Star teams that meet on Sunday, January 28th in Halifax, Nova Scotia. According to league officials, "We're really enjoying releasing these names two at a time; it has started to build some great momentum and considerable press - and it is going to be quite a game."
West All-Star: Mike Parker, a 6'6", 210lb guard/forward from the Bellingham Slam. Mike is averaging 30.1ppg, 7.8rpg and according to his coach, "he could score 30-40 points per game if he wasn't so unselfish and such a team player. He is great to have on a team that could well have had several All-Stars."
