Twitter hosted 11 HBCU students inside its "Tweet Suite" during the 2022 NBA All-Star game on Feb. 20 at the Rocket Financial Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio. The students met celebrities and personalities inside the social media giant's suite that was decked out in the Twitter decor and swag.  

The students witnessed sharpshooter Stephen Curry claim the MVP award after scoring 50 points.  The former NBA champion's record-setting barrage of 16 three-pointers helped Team LeBron win 163-160 over Team Durant in the 71st edition of the NBA All-Star Game. Curry also gave Twitter an assist when he answered a question from Howard's Elijah Hawkins before the NBA HBCU Game.

HBCU STUDENTS IN THE #TWEETSUITE

"We're thrilled that the 11 HBCU students who attended the NBA All-Star Game in Twitter's #TweetSuite had the opportunity to meet and chat with Twitter's CFO, and members of the Twitter Sports team. While the event was mostly lighthearted in nature, and students had a chance to network with all of the attendees in the #TweetSuite, we did take the opportunity to inform any interested students about career opportunities at Twitter, and offer tips on how to best pursue roles in tech and sports more generally. We are excited to stay in touch with these students as they pursue their chosen careers," Twitter Sr. Sports Partner Manager Kelsey Bowers said.
