The 1989 NBA All-Star Game (GAME 39) was held at Houston, Texas on February 12, 1989. The game's MVP was Karl Malone.
The east was led by Mark Jackson, Kevin McHale, Michael Jordan, Patrick Ewing, Moses Malone, Charles Barkley, Isiah Thomas, Dominique Wilkins, Mark Price, Terry Cummings, Larry Nance and Brad Daugherty.
The west was led by the Utah Jazz trio of Karl Malone, John Stockton and Mark Eaton; the Lakers' James Worthy, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Clyde Drexler, Alex English, Chris Mullin, Hakeem Olajuwon, Tom Chambers, Dale Ellis and Kevin Duckworth.[1]
This all-star game was known for setting at that time, an NBA All-Star attendance record and for having neither Magic Johnson nor Larry Bird playing, though both were still active in the NBA. Both were selected, but sat out due to injuries. Though he only scored 4 points, the game ended memorabilly with Abdul-Jabbar hitting the final shot of the game, fittingly a Sky Hook.
Coaches: East: Lenny Wilkens, West: Pat Riley.
