Hoosier basketball fans will have to wait three more years to see the NBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis.

The NBA and the Indiana Pacers announced Wednesday that the weekend-long event, originally scheduled for Feb. 12-14, 2021, will now be held Feb. 16-18, 2024.  They said public health conditions prevented appropriate planning and execution of the activities envisioned for this February.

NBA All-Star 2024 in Indianapolis will follow Cleveland in 2022 and Salt Lake City in 2023 as All-Star host. The 2024 game will mark the second NBA All-Star in Indianapolis, which hosted the event in 1985.

The NBA said plans for a revised NBA All-Star 2021 will be announced at a later date.
