The Armor joins the rest of the D-League in Reno this week for the league's annual Showcase, the most heavily scouted event of the season.

All 16 teams will participate in 16 games over four days and individual players will compete in contests similar to those at NBA All-Star Weekend.

The Armor goes into the event with an 8-8 record following their loss to the Knicks' D-League affiliate, the Erie BayHawks, in Springfield Saturday. Like their parent club, the Armor shot less than 40% overall. Nets camp invites JamesOn Curry and Jerry Smith led the Armor. Smith has 26 points and 10 rebounds and Curry an increasingly typical 17, 9 and 7 assists.
