Heat center Bam Adebayo wins Skills Challenge, Kings star Buddy Hield wins 3-point contest

In the first competition on Saturday night at NBA All-Star weekend in Chicago, Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo didn’t miss a step.

Adebayo, after fighting through the first two rounds on the course, beat Indiana forward Domantas Sabonis in the finals to win the Skills Challenge.

It came down to the final shot, too, after both big men kept even with each other throughout the course. Adebayo, however, got his third attempt from the 3-point line to fall — giving him the win.
