The NBA has canceled the Atlanta Hawks' planned 'Magic City Night' promotion for their March 16 home game against the Orlando Magic at State Farm Arena. The event, announced February 26, aimed to celebrate Atlanta's iconic Magic City strip club through food, music, merchandise, and a podcast, but drew criticism over concerns of objectification and the league's image, including from San Antonio Spurs center Luke Kornet and former Hawk Al Horford.
