NBA All-Star Balloting presented by T-Mobile begins today. Samuel Dalembert, Andre Iguodala, Allen Iverson and Chris Webber will represent the Philadelphia 76ers as fans worldwide have the opportunity to vote for their favorite players as starters for the 56th NBA All-Star Game. The 2007 NBA All-Star Game, which will air live on TNT, ESPN Radio and in more than 215 countries and territories worldwide, will be held at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas on Sunday, Feb. 18, 2007.

Iverson, a two-time NBA All-Star Game MVP (2001, 2005), is vying for his eighth-consecutive All-Star Game appearance. In his first seven All-Star Game appearances (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006), he has averaged 17.3 points per game, which ranks fourth among active players, behind Tracy McGrady (HOU, 18.7 ppg), Kobe Bryant (LAL, 18.6 ppg) and Shaquille O’Neal (MIA, 17.5 ppg). Webber, a five-time NBA All-Star selection (1997, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003), has averaged 7.5 points in four All-Star Game appearances (DNP-sprained ankle in 2003). Iguodala, the 2006 T-Mobile Rookie Challenge MVP and runner-up of the Sprite Rising Stars Slam Dunk Competition at All-Star Weekend last year in Houston is vying for first-time honors. Dalembert, the only active Haitian player in the NBA is also a first-time hopeful. Since the first NBA All-Star Game (1950-51), 28 different players (97 selections) have represented the 76ers franchise at the All-Star game.

Fans have the opportunity to vote at all NBA arenas, in 20 different languages on NBA.com, on AOL.com/nba, at 1,250 T-Mobile-owned retail locations, the Thomas & Mack Center, the Las Vegas Convention Center, Fremont Street and through mobile phones at t-zones using T-Mobile service or wap.nba.com for any wireless carrier.
