The 1993–94 season was Scottie Pippen's first season as the leader of the Chicago Bulls following the first retirement of Michael Jordan, and this All-Star Game turned out to be Pippen's peak shining moment, as he led the way with 29 points, 11 rebounds, and four steals en route to a 127–118 victory for his East All-Stars team while also being voted as the game's MVP.[2]
In this game, Kenny Anderson and Derrick Coleman became the first players in the history of the New Jersey Nets to start in an All-Star Game.[3]
