Phoenix Suns to Host 2027 NBA All-Star Weekend

Mat Ishbia's ambitious vision for the Suns includes major events and a championship pursuit.

Phoenix Suns and WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury owner Mat Ishbia has successfully secured the 2027 NBA All-Star weekend for Phoenix, marking the city's fourth time hosting the event.
Ishbia's tenure has seen significant developments, including making Suns games available for free on broadcast television and investing $100 million in a new practice facility.
The Suns' performance this season has been a mix of optimism and frustration, with health issues limiting the team's top players to only 23 games together.
The 2027 NBA All-Star weekend is expected to bring a $400 million economic impact to Arizona, highlighting the event's significance beyond sports.
Ishbia's efforts aim to make Phoenix the epicenter of basketball, with the ultimate goal of winning a championship for the Suns.
