Though the league switched up its format for the Skills Challenge, the 3-Point Contest stuck to its roots on Saturday night in Cleveland.
The Minnesota Timberwolves big man dominated the competition on Saturday at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, and set an All-Star record in the process. Towns won the event with a final score of 29, which made him just the third big man behind Kevin Love and Dirk Nowitzki to claim that title.
Towns had a very clear message for former big man and current TNT NBA analyst Shaquille O’Neal after the win, too.
