Orlando Magic assistant coach Patrick Ewing will be the head coach for the sophomore team in the Rookie Challenge & Youth Jam on Feb. 12 at American Airlines Center in Dallas. The exhibition is one event at all-star weekend.
The NBA made the announcement a few minutes ago.
Adrian Dantley, a Denver Nuggets assistant coach, will coach the rookie squad.
Ewing works often in practice with Dwight Howard, and now Howard will have a chance to critique his mentor.
Howard will serve as an analyst for a portion of the game’s first half alongside TNT play-by-play man Kevin Harlan and commentator Kevin McHale.
Ewing is no stranger all-star weekend. He was selected to 11 all-star teams as a player.
