The NBA won't hold the 2021 All-Star Weekend festivities in Indianapolis due to coronavirus concerns, the Indiana Pacers announced Wednesday.

The event was originally set to take place next year on Feb. 12-14. Instead, Indianapolis will host the weekend in 2024.

It's possible that the upcoming season's star-studded spectacle will still be held in some manner. The Pacers' release indicates that "plans for a revised NBA All-Star 2021 will be announced at a later date."
