Trivia Tuesday: NBA All-Star Game MVPs since 1980

Yes, we’re still in the middle of the All-Star break in the National Basketball Association.

Maybe you watched Sunday’s All-Star Game in Charlotte, won by Team LeBron — a game that featured 342 points and 62 three-pointers.

If you watched, then you probably know who won the game’s MVP award, and that will serve you well in this week’s Trivia Tuesday challenge.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to name the NBA All-Star Game MVP for every game since 1980. We’ve given you the year and the team each MVP was playing for at the time — you just need to come up with the name.

Make note: there are three years (2009, 2000 and 1993) where there were co-MVPs and there was no game played in 1999.

You’ve got seven minutes…good luck!
