ATLANTA — The NBA All-Star Game typically is a robust, three-day affair, with several fan and community events taking place in the host city.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, though, when State Farm Arena hosts the All-Star Game March 7, it will be on a much smaller scale, for a much shorter time period.
“This is as far from typical as possible,” Hawks CEO Steve Koonin said. “Players will arrive Saturday night, they will leave Sunday night.”
