Nov 09 (Field Level Media) – Miami is expected to play host to the 2028 NBA All-Star Game and bring the midseason festivities back to South Beach for the first time in 38 years, multiple outlets reported Monday.
The Miami Heat last put on the event in 1990 when the Eastern Conference earned a 130-113 victory over the Western Conference. The MVP Award went to Western Conference guard Magic Johnson, who had a game-high 22 points.
The Chicago Bulls’ Craig Hodges won the 3-point shooting contest in 1990, while the Atlanta Hawks’ Dominique Wilkins was the slam-dunk champion.
The 1990 All-Star Game was the only time the event was ever held in Miami.
The Phoenix Suns are set to play host to the 2027 NBA All-Star Weekend from Feb. 19-21 in their recently renovated downtown arena.
