Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki will face Wizard's Gilbert Arenas again in the 3-point contest during the NBA's All-Star weekend next week.

Nowitzki won the event last year in Houston, beating Arenas 18-16 in the final.

Jason Terry, Nowitzki's Dallas teammate, also is back after failing to advance to the final round last year. Rounding out the field are Miami's Jason Kapono, who leads the NBA in 3-point shooting percentage at 55.9 percent; Mike Miller of the Memphis Grizzlies; and Damon Jones of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The contest will be in Las Vegas on Feb. 17, followed a day later by the All-Star game.
