             Eastern Conference     Vs     Western Conference

Anthony Davis now hold a record for most points in all star game with 52 points.

                                   Davis took an All-Star record 39 shots and scored 52 points to lead the West over the East at the 66th All-Star Game, 192-182 -- the highest-scoring game in league history.

	Q1	Q2	Q3	Q4	Total
Western Conference	48	49	47	48	192
Eastern Conference	53	39	47	43	182

                                   The 374 points scored between the teams are the most in NBA All-Star Game history, according to ESPN Stats & Information, surpassing the previous high of 369 set last season.



                                   Davis also had 10 rebounds. He held off a late MVP charge by Thunder guard Russell Westbrook, who had 41 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds. 

                                  When Russell Westbrook passed to Kevin Durant and the latter lobbed it back to the former for a dunk, NBA narratives shifted like time-lapsed tectonic plates.

                                   After totalling 82 seconds together, both were nonchalant, which is an improvement over dismissive. Russ called it a “nice give-and-go.” Durant said the “great basketball play” happened because Westbrook “was open, so I threw him the lob.” It’s a start, but also, hopefully, an end. Before the second half, Westbrook warmed up on KD’s side of the court.

                                   

                                    Russell Westbrook, the MVP of the last two games, finished with 41 points, seven assists and five rebounds. Kevin Durant recorded a triple-double with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. '


                                   Giannis Antetokounmpo paced the East with 30 points. LeBron James finished with 23 points and Isaiah Thomas had 20.

                                   In a First quarter Anthony Davis of the West and Giannis Antetokounmpo of the East each pour in 10 points in the first 12 minutes . The East shoots 62.9 percent (22 of 35) to 55 percent (22 of 40) from the West . There was a combined 58 fast break points from the two sides in the first quarter.

                                  In a second quarter Anthony Davis leads the way with a game-high 22 points .LeBron James has a team-high 20 points for the East. He's the first player to surpass 300 points in All-Star games. Russell Westbrook has 19.

                                  In a 3rd quarter Anthony Davis remains the game's high scorer with 32 points, as well as seven rebounds .Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the East with 28 points .LeBron James has 23 points . both squads shooting near 60 percent in this defense-first affair . Biggest lead has been eight points on both sides . Through three quarters, the West has 92 points in the paint, while the East has 86 .There has been a combined 158 fast break points.     

                                 In a 4th quarter West outscored East only by 5 points.This was a great game.Westbrook scored 12 points -- all on 3s -- in a 63-second span late in the third quarter after coming off the bench. Then he opened the fourth quarter with another 3, giving him 34 points in just under 14 minutes played to that point.

                                 "I was just having fun," Antetokounmpo said. "I told the coaches I'm going to play hard, no matter what. The guys talked to me a lot and they said, 'Your first shot has to be a layup so you can get in a rhythm.' So that's what I did." 

               

                                  Antetokounmpo was impressive with 14-of-17 shooting on layups and dunks. He attempted a single three-pointer and missed it. He scored in the last second to reach the 30-point mark, the most scored by a Bucks player in an NBA All-Star Game. He also had six rebounds, three steals and one assist while playing 23 minutes.

                                  Eric Gordon won three point contest beating Kyrie Irving in Tie Breaker

                                  Gordon had the best round of the whole exhibition to start off his night, with 25 points. He made it to the finals against Kyrie Irving and Kemba Walker and kinda sorta choked on his final rack. Kyrie had set the pace at 20, and Gordon had 19 before getting to the far corner. He hit just one of the five shots there, and a tiebreaker was required.


                                  Irving had to go first, and his legs were clearly not the same. He missed several of his shots badly, and didn't even crack 20 points. The man formerly known as E.J. cruised to a score of 21, and took the trophy.



                      All-Star Slam Dunk Contest Winner :Glenn Robinson

                                 Robinson gets the C+, with the plus coming as a result of his victory, which largely happened by default. Robinson’s first dunk was arguably the dunk of the night—he threw down a reverse after grabbing the ball from someone who was perched on someone else’s shoulders. The best part of the slam was Robinson milking the setup, continuously asking the person holding the ball to go higher until he reached his perch.



                                 Aoron Gordon failed to defend his Slam Dunk Champion Title.

                  

                                 

                                 Kristaps Porzingis won skill chalange in All-Star week end.
