Curry, Doncic, Booker highlight big names in Three-Point Contest, Skills Challenge

Ashley Nicole Moss joins the show to talk about the New York Knicks' resurgence under Tom Thibodeau, how the team can turn its success into attracting stars and what a Knicks-Nets playoff series would look like.

The NBA All-Star Skills Challenge is stacked with some of the NBA’s biggest names.

But nothing like the shooters in the Three-Point Contest.

Before Sunday’s All-Star Game in Atlanta, the two events taking place are filled with some of the biggest names and best players in the game today.

The Three-point contest will feature:

• Stephen Curry (Warriors), the greatest shooter of all time (and former contest winner)
• Devin Booker (Suns), a former three-point champion of the event
• Jayson Tatum (Celtics)
• Jaylen Brown (Celtics)
• Donovan Mitchell (Jazz)
• Zach LaVine (Bulls)

LaVine could be the “sleeper” in this group — he is shooting 43.3% from three this season, the best of anyone in the competition. But bet against Curry at your own risk.

The Skills Challenge will feature:

• Luka Doncic (Mavericks)
• Chris Paul (Suns)
• Julius Randle (Knicks)
• Domantas Sabonis (Pacers)
• Nikola Vucevic (Magic)
• Robert Covington (Trail Blazers)

The Skills Competition and Three-point shootout will occur prior to the All-Star Game, taking place Sunday, March 7, in Atlanta.
