Barclays Center and the Brooklyn Nets will not be hosts to the 2017 NBA All-Star Game, Brian Lewis of The New York Post reports. The NBA is pulling its All-Star Game out of Charlotte because of the league's objections to North Carolina House Bill 2, which limited anti-discrimination protections for LGBT persons in the state.
An league source said Brooklyn is "not in that mix" for the 2017 #NBAAllStarGame that was moved from Charlotte. #nets

New Orleans appears to be the frontrunner.
