WEST 143, EAST 134, at The Astrodome (Houston)
ATTENDANCE: 44,735
MVP: Karl Malone
The 1988-89 season for Utah`s Karl Malone was a watershed one, marking his first of 11 straight All-NBA First Team nominations and first of five straight seasons as the NBA`s No. 2 scorer. In case those across the country had missed out on his exploits, though, Malone put on a scoring show in the 1989 All-Star Game that left no doubt to his ability.Malone had 28 points on 12-for-17 shooting, nine rebounds and two steals in the West`s 143-134 victory. Malone`s familar Jazz running-mate, John Stockton, made sure "The Mailman" got the ball often, dishing out 17 assists and recording five steals as well. It was a marquee year for the Jazz as this was the first time Utah had three players in the All-Star Game: Malone, Stockton and center Mark Eaton.
Michael Jordan did all he could to keep the East close, scoring 28 points, while Isiah Thomas (19 points, 14 assists, four steals) went toe-to-toe with Stockton at the point guard spot. This was the final All-Star game for Hall of Famers Moses Malone and Alex English, but marked the first All-Star appearance for Chris Mullin. A reserve on the West representing the Warriors, Mullin scored four points in 14 minutes.
Magic Johnson made the West All-Star team for the ninth time, but was unable to play because of injury. |
