Hue Hollins Bennett Salvatore John Stockton (Co-MVPs) The 1993 NBA All-Star Game took place on February 21, 1993, and was an exhibition game played between the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, home of the Utah Jazz. This was the 43rd edition National Basketball Association all-star game played during the 1992-1993 season. The Western Conference went on to beat the East 135 to 132 in overtime. The slam dunk competition on All-Star Saturday night was won by Harold Miner from the Miami Heat, and the three-point shootout was won by Mark Price from the Cleveland Cavaliers. The regular season then continued on Tuesday, February 23, 1993.

This is the first NBA All-Star Game to be aired in primetime on the East Coast, and the first in which Law & Order served as the lead-out program for the NBA All-Star Game, thus beginning the tradition of a series from the Law & Order franchise airing after the game.

Coaches

The coaches for the 1993 NBA All-Star Game were chosen for the best current season win percentage in their conference through the games of February 18, 1993.

The head coach for the Eastern Conference was Pat Riley, head coach of the New York Knicks for the regular season, and his 9th NBA All-Star appearance as a head coach. The head coach for the Western Conference was Paul Westphal, first year as head coach of the Phoenix Suns for the regular season.

Players

The 1993 NBA All-Star game would be a highlight for many NBA players. This would be Michael Jordan's last NBA All-Star game before leaving the NBA for the first time, although he would return to play in five more. For Isiah Thomas, this would be his last NBA All-Star appearance; meanwhile, this would also be the All-Star debut of Shaquille O'Neal, and the first time the Orlando Magic and Charlotte Hornets franchises ever had a player in the NBA All-Star Game. Playing on their home court, Karl Malone and John Stockton shared the game's MVP award. The starters for the Eastern Conference included: Michael Jordan as shooting guard, Isiah Thomas as point guard, Scottie Pippen as small forward, Larry Johnson as power forward, and Shaquille O'Neal as center. The starters for the Western Conference included: Clyde Drexler as shooting guard, John Stockton as point guard Charles Barkley as small forward, Karl Malone as Power forward, and David Robinson as Center. All starters would end up in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame except for Larry Johnson. Mitch Richmond on Western Conference was injured and replaced by Terry Porter. Chris Mullin on the Western Conference team was also injured; however, he was not replaced by anyone.
