With all the All-Star weekend festivities happening in one day Steph Curry put on a show in the three point competition, and during the all star game itself.
Starting off with the three point competition Steph set a new record with 31 points in the first round giving himself the top seed going into round two. Steph made one of the two mountain dew zone shots from 29 feet away and made four of the five shots at his money-ball rack.

In the second round Steph continued to show how good of a shooter he is. While he struggled at the beginning of his round he once again drained four of his five money-ball shots and also both of the mountain dew zone shots putting him back in contention where he made four of his last five shots to beat Mike Conley at the buzzer by one point to win his second three point crown.

Steph was not done there though. Steph came out in the first quarter still on fire, making a shot from the logo and also turned around mid shot for a no look three pointer.

Towards the end of the half Steph and Dame Lillard were swapping on half court shots and they were all sinking. Steph finished the half with eight three pointers which is an all star game record for most three pointers in a half.
