Charlotte to host 2019 NBA All-Star Game

June 2015: NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, left, and Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan appear together on the day Charlotte was announced as the site of the 2017 NBA All-Star game. The NBA would later pull the 2017 game from Charlotte over the league’s opposition to North Carolina’s House Bill 2. Following the controversial bill’s repeal, the league said this week Charlotte will host the 2019 All-Star Game. Chuck Burton AP

• All-Star Weekend to the Queen City, the Observer has learned.
  
  The three-day event will be held on a Friday through Sunday, Feb. 15-17, climaxing in Sunday night’s All-Star Game. Most events, including the game and various skills competitions, will be held uptown at the Spectrum Center.
  
  The NBA is expected to make an official announcement sometime Wednesday. Charlotte was originally awarded the 2017 All-Star Weekend, but the NBA rescinded that decision last summer in response to House Bill 2, the North Carolina law which the league and other organizations denounced as discriminatory against LGBT individuals.
  
  Gov. Roy Cooper in March signed a compromise bill that repealed HB2 but banned local governments from passing anti-discrimination ordinances for three years.
