Damian Lillard Aims for Historic Third Straight NBA 3-Point Contest Win
Damian Lillard will aim to make history by winning his third consecutive NBA 3-Point Contest on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at Chase Center in San Francisco. The event, part of the NBA All-Star Weekend, is scheduled to begin around 8 p.m. ET. Lillard, an Oakland native, previously won the contest in 2023 and 2024, and a victory this year would place him alongside Larry Bird and Craig Hodges as the only players to achieve a three-peat in the event.
Lillard enters as the +250 favorite, followed by Tyler Herro, Norman Powell, and Buddy Hield, who are all listed at +500. Other notable participants include Darius Garland, Cam Johnson, Jalen Brunson, and Cade Cunningham. However, SportsLine expert Mike Barner, known for his 80-52 run on NBA prop picks, is fading Lillard due to concerns about his recent hamstring injury and the historical difficulty of winning three straight titles. Barner has identified a “resurgent season” participant as his top pick, though the specific player remains undisclosed.
The 3-Point Contest is one of the highlights of All-Star Weekend, which also features the Rising Stars Challenge, Dunk Contest, and a revamped All-Star Game format. The weekend festivities will culminate in a mini tournament-style All-Star Game on Sunday, where teams led by Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley, and Kenny Smith will compete for a $1.8 million prize pool.
