Brown Convention Center at 3 PM ET on Saturday, Feb. 15.
Taylor, along with assistant coaches Tunde Adekola and J.P.

Bakersfield's Will Voigt was selected to helm the Prospects Team based on having the highest winning percentage with a 17-8 record in the three-division NBA D-League in games played through Jan. 27. This will be the first All-Star appearances for both coaches.
The 2013 NBA Development League All-Star Game returns to NBA All-Star festivities for the seventh consecutive year. The game, which will feature 20 top NBA D-League prospects, will air live on NBA TV at 3 PM ET.
