Jerry Stackhouse, Coby Karl eager for D-League All-Star game
Jerry Stackhouse played in two NBA All-Star games, and some of his work from two appearances in the league’s dunk contest remains popular YouTube fodder . Coby Karl has been to a few All-Star weekends has well, a perk of having his father coaching the game.
Next weekend, they’ll get a different perspective.
But soon, they’ll see it from the D-League perspective.
Stackhouse and Coby Karl are the coaches for next Saturday’s NBA Development League All-Star Game. Both are in their first seasons as D-League head coaches, Stackhouse with Toronto’s Raptors 905 and Karl with the Lakers’ Los Angeles D-Fenders. They share a vision — unlike the minimal-defence game that is coming next Sunday night, the D-League contest is a chance for players to show why they belong.
