There were talks before the match of Team LeBron being far more stacked up than Team Giannis. All the Hall of Famers, all the NBA analysts were favouring LeBron's team.

But Giannis and his team got off to a very hot start. They took a 53-37 lead after the first quarter and once had a 20-point lead in the third quarter.

Team LeBron had to rally back in the match behind some terrific three-point shooting by the second group led by Klay Thompson and Damian Lillard. Lillard and Klay made six three-pointers each and managed to cut through the lead.

Team LeBron had a one-point lead going into the fourth quarter. They never looked back and kept on increasing the advantage.

Kawhi Leonard and Kevin Durant started making shots. Despite some highlight plays by Stephen Curry in the fourth quarter which included a four-point play over his Splash brother, Klay Thompson, Team Giannis could not get close.
