 NEW YORK (AP) - Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry were selected Wednesday to participate in the NBA's 3-point Shootout, pitting the Dallas teammates against each other and four other competitors during the All-Star weekend in Houston.
Defending champion Quentin Richardson of the New York Knicks, 2001 winner Ray Allen of Seattle, Chauncey Billups of Detroit and Raja Bell of Phoenix are the other participants. The contest is Feb. 18, a night before the All-Star game.
Richardson won the event last year while playing for Phoenix, but he has struggled this season for the Knicks. He was shooting just 31.3 percent from beyond the arc entering Wednesday.
