Currently to be held in Charlotte. The NBA is looking to move the the 2017 All-Star Game in February from Charlotte because of its objection to North Carolina House Bill 2.

Quote:
The Vertical reported Thursday that New Orleans had emerged as a front-runner to host the game. Several other NBA cities have become options, including Chicago and New York/Brooklyn, sources told ESPN.

Likely ruled out: Toronto(2016 hosts) & Los Angeles(2018).

*Portland, Sacramento, Memphis, and Oklahoma City are the only current NBA cities that have not yet hosted an NBA All-Star Game.

Well it definitely will be moved, the NBA announced that today.

They just haven't announced the replacement city.
