Team LeBron outlasts Team Stephen in All-Star game thriller

Share

Stephen Curry had the ball in his hands on the final possession of the All-Star game, but saw himself guarded by a familiar face: Warriors teammate Kevin Durant, as well as opposing captain LeBron James.

Durant and James' trap forced Curry to pass to DeMar DeRozan for a desperation heave that fell short, and Team LeBron beat Team Stephen 148-145 in the first year of a new All-Star format. 

Durant finished second on Team LeBron with 19 points. The Golden State trio of Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green scored 11, 15, and three points, respectively, for Team Stephen. 

LeBron James led all scorers with 29 points, and was named the game's most valuable player for the third time -- the second most in NBA history.
