The NBA has unveiled the logo for the 2017 All-Star Game, which returns to New Orleans just three years after its last visit to the Big Easy.

The logo's background offers a wallpaper-filled fleur de lis design and a contrasting Victorian contour to honor the city's French roots.

The city was chosen as a replacement after Charlotte was stripped of the honor due to the controversy over the HB2 law in North Carolina.

New Orleans also hosted the event in 2008 when the East beat the West 134-128.

The 2008 and 2013 All-Star Game logos also had eye-popping designs, adorned with vines, trumpets and the signature fleur de lis. Which do you like best?
