INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard defended his NBA 3-point contest title by finishing with 26 points in the final round during All-Star Saturday night. This one nearly ended without Lillard advancing to the final round. Then in the final, Young and Towns each put up 24 points, giving Lillard a chance to win it with a late shooting flurry that gave him the title. Team All-Stars' win in the shooting contest tied the score at 200, forcing the tiebreaker. Haliburton needed just 38.3 seconds for a win that continued a big weekend for the Pacers, who are hosting their first All-Star weekend since 1985.
