SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - Hilton Armstrong, Seth Curry and Dewayne Dedmon have been selected to play in the eighth annual NBA D-League All-Star Game, the League announced today. They will play on the Futures team, helmed by Canton Charge Head Coach Steve Hetzel and his staff. The game will take place at Sprint Arena inside NBA All-Star Jam Session at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans on Saturday, Feb. 15, airing live on NBA TV at 12:00 p.m. PT.

Armstrong has appeared in 18 games with the Santa Cruz Warriors, averaging 13.2 points and 7.6 rebounds in 28.3 minutes played. He earned a GATORADE Call-Up to the Golden State Warriors on Dec. 11, 2013, where he appeared in seven games, averaging 2.3 rebounds in 4.0 minutes per contest. The 6'11", 235-pound center received a 2014 NBA D-League Showcase Honorable Mention.

Curry has appeared in 20 games with the Santa Cruz Warriors, averaging 19.6 points and 7.0 assists (fourth best in the NBA D-League) in 35.7 minutes played per contest. Curry earned a GATORADE Call-Up to the Memphis Grizzlies on Dec. 24, 2013, where he appeared in one game. The 6'1", 180-pound guard was named to the 2014 NBA D-League Showcase Second Team.

Dedmon has appeared in 15 games with the Santa Cruz Warriors, averaging 15.2 points and leading the NBA D-League in rebounds per game (13.5). He ranked seventh in the league in blocked shots per game (2.3) before earning a GATORADE Call-Up to the Philadelphia 76ers on Jan. 14, 2014. The 7'0", 255-pound center appeared in 11 games with Philadelphia, averaging 3.4 points and 4.5 boards in 13.7 minutes played. In addition, Dedmon was named to the 2014 NBA D-League Showcase Second Team.

The field of 20 players was selected by a vote of the NBA D-League's 17 head coaches and was divided into two teams by League officials. Players were eligible to be selected based on having played in at least half of their team's games through Jan. 26. Each player must be on an active NBA D-League roster at the time of the NBA D-League All-Star Game in order to compete.

Last season, seven of the 20 NBA D-League All-Stars who played in Houston went on to earn GATORADE Call-Ups to the NBA later in the year, including Travis Leslie, last season's NBA D-League All-Star Game MVP, who was called-up to the Utah Jazz on March 10, 2013. Over the NBA D-League All-Star Game's seven-year history, 87 of the 126 players have had, or subsequently earned, NBA experience.
