Quin Snyder of the Utah Jazz will coach the Western Conference entry in next month's All-Star Game, sources told ESPN.
While the league has not officially announced the game is taking place March 7, if it holds to its typical timeline of selecting the coach of the team with the best record as of two weeks before the game -- which sources say the league intends to do -- then Snyder officially locked up the honor with Utah's win over the Philadelphia 76ers Monday night.
Los Angeles Lakers coach Frank Vogel is ineligible to coach this year, having done so last season, while Monday's win clinched Utah having a better record than the Clippers no matter what happens the rest of this week.
