Curry, who defeated Sabrina Ionescu in a unique three-point competition on Saturday night, gave the young player form advice and demonstrated the correct way to handle the ball.

In a very high-scoring game, the Warriors star finished with 16 points, 8 assists, and 5 rebounds as his West team was crushed 211-186.

For the East, Antetokounmpo had seven boards and 23 points.

In his first All-Star game for the East, Damian Lillard, a colleague of the Greek Freak, was awarded the MVP of the match.

In a record-breaking victory over the West, the Bucks guard finished with 39 points, 11 3-pointers, six assists, three rebounds, and one steal. 

For a team that shattered records for overall points and threes made in an All-Star Game with 42, Lillard was 14 of 26 from the field and 11 of 23 from three. 

 Lillard, Indiana shooter Tyrese Haliburton, and Boston guard Jaylen Brown were three of the eight players who scored in double figures. 

Minnesota’s Karl Anthony-Towns scored 50 points for the West as well.

One day after Lillard won his second straight three-point game, he receives this honour. 

He was a member of the Portland Trail Blazers when he was awarded this honour last year.
