Magic plan to submit bids to host NBA All-Star Game in 2019 or 2020

The Orlando Magic intend to submit bids to host the NBA All-Star Game in 2019 or in 2020 when the league sends out requests for proposals within the next several months, Magic CEO Alex Martins said.

In 2012, Orlando hosted the All-Star Game at Amway Center.

Houston, New Orleans, New York and Toronto have hosted the exhibition in subsequent years, and Charlotte, N.C., is scheduled to host in 2017.

Los Angeles, which last hosted the event in 2011, is likely to host the 2018 All-Star Game, according to USA Today Sports.
