NBA Fans Go Berserk as Michael Jordan, Stephen Curry and Magic Johnson Spotted Attending NBA All Star Game
Michael Jordan is one of the NBA’s premier stars. His dynamite performances not only earned him 6 championships during his career but also 14 All-Star Game selections, among which he was named MVP thrice. Additionally, ‘His Airness’ was also a two-time slam dunk champion. So it is quite evident that MJ is not just a legend of the Chicago Bulls, but also a legend of the NBA All-Star Weekend too!
At the 2022 All-Star Game, the NBA, that had previously released a list of players for the 75th Anniversary Team, honored those very same members. This roster of players included former legends like Magic Johnson, MJ himself, and current stars like Stephen Curry and LeBron James. In fact, MJ, Magic and Curry were seen together at the event and this took fans on Twitter by storm.

Clearly, this moment was a jaw-dropping one for the fans. If three NBA Legends in close vicinity with one another made fans go berserk on Twitter, imagine how fans at the event would have felt when they were surrounded by 75 legends of the sport.
NBA’s 75th Anniversary Team at Cleveland
The 2021-22 season marked the 75th Anniversary for the NBA. In honor of the greatness that fans and the league have seen over the years, the NBA released its very own team of 75 of the greatest players of all time. In light of this, the league welcomed its 75 greatest players to Cleveland at the All-Star Game, in order to honor them.
The event was a special one for both fans and players as they got to witness their childhood idols and inspirations. Additionally, it also brought back a sense of nostalgia for the NBA community too.
The event was directed by the famed film director, Spike Lee, while Tiffany Haddish, J. B. Smoove, and Usher introduced the players on the squad. The fact that many NBA greats of old and new were seen together was truly a great moment.
