Kerby Raymundo is skipping the All-Star Game because his right knee is under rehab.

The B-Meg Derby Ace superstar has been voted by fans to start for the North along with Mark Pingris, JC Intal, Jayjay Helterbrand and Paul Artadi in the annual classic scheduled on April 25 in Puerto Princesa City.

To date, Raymundo has already missed his team's two games in the ongoing PBA Fiesta Conference.

His recovery may take a while according Derby Ace coach Ryan Gregorio, who said, “there is no timetable for his return.”

Raymundo's absence paved the way for Rain or Shine's Gabe Norwood to start for a team blessed with height, quickness and good shooters.

Gregorio, who led the Purefoods TJ Giants to the Philippine Cup Championship last conference, has been assigned to coach the North that also has rookie Rico Maierhofer, Willie Miller, Ranidel de Ocampo, Sol Mercado, Ryan Reyes, Mac Cardona and Arwind Santos.

Starting for the South are Kelly Williams, Erik Menk, Asi Taulava, Cyrus Baguio and James Yap, who received the most number of fan votes with 47,156.

Alaska coach Tim Cone will call the shots for the South. Completing the team are Jimmy Alapag, Roger Yap, Reynel Hugnatan, Dondon Hontiveros, Sonny Thoss, Joe Devance and Ronald Tubid.

The All-Star Weekend, now on its 21st edition, also features the Rookies vs Sophomores Blitz Game, Slam Dunk contest, Obstacle event and the 3-Point Shootout.

The Rookies are composed of Marcy Arellano, Jervy Cruz, Ogie Menor, Chris Ross, Chris Timberlake, Joshua Urbiztondo, Ronnie Matias and Mike Burtscher.

Beau Belga, Mark Borboran, Jason Castro, Jeff Chan, Bonbon Custodio, Jared Dillinger, Larry Rodriguez and Mark Yee complete the Sophomore roster.
