Why Damian Lillard might be the 3-point (contest) king
Briefly

The recent NBA All-Star Game returning to the Bay Area marks a nostalgic moment for nine-time All-Star Damian Lillard, who reflects on his childhood experience from the last event there 25 years ago. As he competes for a third consecutive NBA 3-point contest title, Lillard is often overshadowed by Stephen Curry's shooting legacy. Both players are elite in their shooting abilities, but Lillard's achievements in deep 3s highlight his skill in an era dominated by long-range shots, solidifying his status as a key player during the modern shooting revolution.
Lillard's prowess as a three-point shooter goes often unnoticed compared to Curry, despite Lillard being a leading competitor in deep 3-point shooting.
The upcoming All-Star Game in the Bay Area represents a full-circle moment for Lillard, who participated in events back in 2000.
