The experiment is over, and the 2025 NBA All-Star game, in its newest format, is done and dusted. The players and everyone will now move to the regular season where the sport’s finest compete for the greatest achievement. But what’s catching the headlines from the All-Star? The post-game news is making more news than Shaq’s OG’s winning! The latest bit of news has to do with Celtics‘ shooting guard Jaylen Brown’s proposition to move the next all-star game to Boston. But why?
Well, after the initial traction, this year’s edition brought more heat than hype. There’s been a decline in quality and effort from the players taking part in the annual event for a while now — something the NBA failed to upkeep in 2025 as well, even after all the efforts. This has decreased viewership numbers for the match — both on and off the court. Luckily for us, Jaylen Brown took it upon himself to bring back the glory days of these games. He said that the games should be moved to Boston. And his justification? Because the Chase Center was pretty much empty from a fan’s perspective on February 16th. But will the NBA Commissioner NBA Adam Silver listen to it?
“Got the craziest fans in the world in Boston, so I’m sure they would enjoy it. It seemed like it was a little empty in here tonight; I don’t think in Boston that would happen. So if we bring the All-Star Game to Boston, I would love to be there, and I would love to participate,” said Jaylen after the Bay Area matchup. It might seem a little biased considering he plays for the Greens, but all of this comes from statistical backing.
Jaylen Brown would love for the All-Star Game to be hosted in Boston.
