The NBA releases the official All-Star Saturday Night logo which will take place at the Nets’ Barclays Center, not the Knicks’ Madison Square Garden.

While we’re still months away from the 2015 NBA All-Star game that doesn’t mean the league isn’t ready to promote the three-night event.
What begins with the Rookie Challenge game is then followed by All-Star Saturday night and book-ended by the actual All-Star game on Sunday evening.
The NBA has previously released the logo for the game which is a subway motif (a fine play on the culture of the city). Sunday’s contest will be played at Madison Square Garden, home to the New York Knicks. But what about Saturday night? Well, the wait is over as the official NBA All-Star Saturday Night logo for 2015 has been released.

You’ll likely notice on the logo it states the events will be taking place in Brooklyn. A typo? Nope. The NBA decided to split the 2015 All-Star game and All-Star Saturday night between the Knicks home venue and the Brooklyn Nets‘ Barclays Center which will host both Friday and Saturday events.
The Saturday night logo doesn’t have nearly the same influence as the original in regards to the subway though it does seem to implement some subway station tiles in the logo.
It’s not overly detailed though does have a crisp, clean feel to it. Have to assume most will be a fan of the look, especially since the league wanted to differentiate a bit between the New York and Brooklyn styles.
