Recapping LeBron James and Steph Curry’s All-Star Game
After an underwhelming Dunk Contest, all eyes were on the All-Star Game, and LeBron James and Steph Curry duly obliged by putting on a show. While the game wasn’t as competitive as the one in 2020, the fans were treated to a spectacle by the two players who have carried the league in the last decade.
Curry started the game and brought the place to life with his incredible explosion from beyond the arc throughout the game. Curry finished with 50 points in 36 minutes, while shooting 27 times from the perimeter and making 16 of them, an ASG record.
Arguably the most iconic moment of the night was when the ball reached Curry’s hand after beautiful ball movement involving Nikola Jokić and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Curry then hit a no-look 3-pointer from the corner, and “The Baby-Faced Assassin” turned to the crowd as soon as the ball left his palm.
However, the night wasn’t going to end without LeBron James making a mark. After Zach LaVine hit a 3-pointer for Team Durant, the ball ended up in the hands of James. He hit a fadeaway from the wing while being guarded by LaVine for the game-winner. “King James” ended with 24 points, six rebounds and eight assists, three steals and one block Sunday.
It was one of the most memorable All-Star games in recent memory as two men from Akron, Ohio, soared for the fans in Cleveland and the rest of the NBA.
