The All-Star Game has never been one for defense, and on Sunday night in Indianapolis, offensive records were set. Most three-pointers by a team (42). Most points by a team (211). The range of players was on full display as the two teams combined for 67 made threes.
The game returned to the East vs. West format, and it was the Eastern Conference that won, 211-186, with Damian Lillard earning MVP honors. It was Lillard’s first appearance for the East, as well as his first start in an All-Star Game in his career.
The Phoenix Suns were represented by two players, with Kevin Durant starting for the Western Conference and Devin Booker playing as a reserve.
