On Saturday The competition got harder starting off with the skills challenge the the 3 point contest and finish the night off with the dunk contest. In the skills challenge we had some of the bigs and smalls from the NBA like, Porzingis and , Isaiah Thomas, and Anthony Davis.

In the final round it was Porzingis Vs. Gordon Hayward. They were basically tied the whole challenge until the last part of the challenge to win it a three. The shots went off at the same time and Porzingis shot was good and he was named the 2017 skills challenge Champ. The next challenge was the most exciting as all the three point challenge.

As the returning champ Klay Thompson tried to go back to back good shots such as , The Young Star Kyrie Irving , and sixth man from the Houston Rockets Eric Gordon. The first round was a shock as Klay Thompson got eliminated. Kyrie Irving, Eric Gordon and Kemba Walker would all advance to the championship round. Kemba Walker couldn’t keep up and Kyrie Irving and Gordon tied at 20 to go into overtime. Gordon exploded from the money ball rack and took the win 21-18 to be named the three point champion

In the dunk contest it didn’t live up to the hype with unbearable dunks and Aaron Gordon doing nothing. Glenn Robinson 111 took home the title with amazing dunks and blew out all other opponents in Deandre Jordan and Derrick Jones.
