The 2009 NBA All-Star game will be played on February 15, 2009 at US Airways Center in Phoenix, Arizona, home of the Phoenix Suns. This will be the third time the city has held the basketball showcase. The game will be the 58th annual All-Star game. This will also be the last sporting event to be televised in the U.S. prior to TV's American conversion to digital TV. Commissioner David Stern made the announcement at a news conference on November 8, 2007 at US Airways Center, where the game will be played. Phoenix was the site of the All-Star game in 1995 and 1975. Toronto, New York, Oakland and Milwaukee reportedly were contenders for the 2009 contest.^[1]
