2024 NBA All-Star - State Farm All-Star Saturday Night
NBA All-Star 2024 3-Point Contest: Scores, Results and Winners

Quite possibly the highlight of the NBA All-Star Weekend over the past few years has been the Starry 3-Point Contest. It has been more entertaining for many fans than the Slam Dunk Contest, which has lost its luster due to the lack of participating stars. On that note, let's look at the scores, results and winner of the 3-Point Shootout.

Damian Lillard of the Milwaukee Bucks had the opportunity to win back-to-back Starry 3-Point Contests, while Karl-Anthony Towns was looking to win his second 3-point award. Six others were trying to win their first one.

Here's the full list of participants:

  • Damian Lillard (Milwaukee Bucks)
  • Karl-Anthony Towns (Minnesota Timberwolves)
  • Jalen Brunson (New York Knicks)
  • Trae Young (Atlanta Hawks)
  • Tyrese Haliburton (Indiana Pacers)
  • Donovan Mitchell (Cleveland Cavaliers)
  • Lauri Markkanen (Utah Jazz)
  • Malik Beasley (Milwaukee Bucks)
