Arizona Basketball: Brandon Ashley earns D-League All-star spot

The difference between the D-League All-Star team and the NBA All-star team is simple, one is a popularity contest, and the other is based on your performance. These athletes should be proud of themselves, and one of them is especially close to our hearts. Brandon Ashley plays for the Texas Legends. The Legends are the Dallas Mavericks D-League team which signed Ashley for the season as an affiliate.

Our Wildcats never give up! All four Arizona Wildcats who left Tucson last year have persevered and are playing in the NBA or NBA D-League.

The D-League All-star game will be played on this Saturday, February 13th, tipping off at 2 p.
