ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -NBA commissioner David Stern says the Orlando Magic will host an All-Star game soon in their new arena.
Stern said before Game 5 of the Sixers-Magic series Tuesday that “without question, there is an All-Star game in Orlando’s future.” Stern could not give a year the city would host but said he hopes it would be announced before the 2010 All-Star game at the new Dallas Cowboys stadium.
Stern toured the construction site of the Orlando Events Center earlier in the day. The Magic’s new arena is expected to open for the 2010-11 season.
Stern also said he does not see the All-Star game moving out of the country anytime soon because there are too many NBA franchises trying to host the game.
