On February 19, the NBA All-Star Game came to an end, with the Eastern Stars defeating the Western Stars 211-186, and Lillard won the first All-Star MVP of his career with his outstanding performance. The game was full of passion, Janduku combined to contribute 42 points, and Towns had 50 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, but it still couldn't prevent the Eastern Stars from winning.
In this All-Star Game, both the East and West have fielded strong lineups. The Eastern Stars team consists of Lillard, Haliburton, Tatum, Antetokounmpo and Adebayo, while the Western Stars team has Doncic, Alexander, James, Durant and Jokic. At the beginning of the game, the West took the lead in getting into the groove, Durant made a layup on the empty lever, and then hit a three-pointer to score five points in a row. Not to be outdone, Haliburton hit five three-pointers in a row, and currently scored 15 points on 5-of-5 shooting, turning the game into a solo show.
Then the game entered the climax stage, James assisted Curry to hit a three-pointer, and the three faces of the league were on the same stage, and the scene was eye-catching. The West became more and more courageous, and James broke through as if he had entered a no-man's land, drawing a full bow to complete the one-armed tomahawk split. Both starters were out of the court, and during the bench show time, Maxey broke through and Booker fouled, Curry blocked Banchero for a dunk, and Booker made a long pass to assist Edwards for a dunk. At the end of the first quarter, the East led the West 53-47.
The game entered the second quarter, the West suddenly fell silent, the East seized the opportunity to fire with full firepower, Brunson also hit a three-pointer in the bottom corner, and the East led to 19 points. The West responded quickly, with Paul George providing a grounded assist and James leaping high for a dunk. Then it rained three points directly in the East, and Lillard singled out Durant to hit a long-range three-point shot, scoring 22 points with 6 three-pointers, which deserved to be the champion of the three-point contest, which was too accurate. The East was full of players, Jaylen Brown hit another three-pointer to score 12 points, and the Eastern Conference All-Star slashed 104 points in the half. At halftime, the East led the West 104-89.
Coming back in the second half, James did not continue to play because of an injury, and Curry took the starting position. The Eastern Stars continued to push hard, scoring more than 50 points in three consecutive quarters. At the end of the third quarter, the score difference also exceeded 20 points. The Western All-Stars didn't have a chance to chase points in the final quarter, and the game lost suspense early. In the end, the Eastern Stars defeated the Western All-Stars 211-186 at home.
