Adam Silver and the NBA All-Star Weekend will move back to Charlotte in 2019. “For three decades, the NBA has had a home in Charlotte,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Wednesday in a statement. The NCAA announced in April that it will once again hold championship events in North Carolina after moving them out of the state this academic year because of House Bill 2. A number of other businesses and entertainers also announced that they would be avoiding the state because of House Bill 2, costing it millions in lost revenue. The 2019 All-Star Game and the festivities that lead up to it will be held Feb. 15-17 of that year.
