Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson and Nets power forward Cam Johnson are among the players who will be in the Three-Point Contest during 2025 NBA All-Star weekend.
The rest of the field includes Cade Cunningham, Darius Garland, Tyler Herro, Buddy Hield, Damian Lillard, and Norman Powell.
Brunson is competing for the second straight year, and he’ll be looking to put together a better performance after being eliminated in the first round last season in Indiana.
The captain is averaging 26.1 points per game while shooting just under 40 percent from three-point land for the season.
Johnson, on the other hand, is showing off his skills for the first time despite being among the top sharpshooters in the game throughout his six-year career.
He’s averaging a career-high 3.2 threes made and shooting 42 percent from behind the arc this season.
They’ll be looking to keep Lillard from securing his third consecutive victory.
The Three-Point contest will take place on Saturday, Feb. 15.
