2027 All-Star Saturday 3-Point Contest Set to Feature Unexpected Rivalries and Record-Breaking Shooters—Who Will Reign Supreme?

Alright, let me just put it out there—the NBA’s 3-Point Contest isn’t just some side event; it’s honestly the crown jewel of All-Star Saturday night. Year in and year out, we get dazzled by the sharp shooters, the clutch moments, and the kind of drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat. With next year’s roster already looking stacked, thanks to the likes of Damian Lillard snapping shots and Steph Curry teasing a return, I’m convinced it’s high time this contest takes center stage as the grand finale. And let’s not forget Devin Booker, whose near-miss this year has everyone buzzing—his hometown Phoenix showdown might just be his last shot. The plotlines are thickening, the stakes are rising, and honestly? I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds. LEARN MORE

It’s time for the NBA to recognize and treat the 3-Point Contest for what it is — the best part of All-Star Saturday. It has the star players, it has the drama, and it brings it every year. It is time to start closing All-Star Saturday Night with the 3-point contest.

Next year might be the right time because the field is already starting to stack up. This year’s winner, Damian Lillard, posted a screenshot of a text he had with Stephen Curry — and Curry had already said on NBC that he would be back in the contest next year.

Devin Booker told Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic that he was in for next year, but losing this year stung, so the one on his home court in Phoenix might be his last.

This one had to hit Booker hard, all he had to do was hit one of his final three moneyballs and he would have won the event, but…

For his part, Curry seems good to go.
