The promise of Stephen Curry about the 2027 All Star Game that excites the NBA
The Golden State Warriors star will make a triumphant return to the Three-Point Contest in next year's edition
Stephen Curry announced that he will participate again in the three-point contest at the 2027 All-Star Weekend, to be held in Phoenix. The Golden State Warriors guard made the announcement on Sunday during an NBC broadcast while he was sidelined with a knee injury.
Curry admitted that seeing his teammate and friend Damian Lillard win the contest in Los Angeles was an incentive for his decision. He also revealed that he will try to convince his former teammate Klay Thompson to also come back to the event.
Curry last won the contest in 2021 in Atlanta and previously in 2015 in New York. On the other hand, Thompson was crowned champion in 2016 in Toronto.
A new historic goal
With Lillard's recent triumph—his third in the contest—Curry would also have the opportunity to achieve that milestone again. The Warriors guard is already the NBA's all-time leader in three-pointers made and has led the league in that category in eight different seasons.
In the current season, Curry is averaging a 39.1% accuracy from the three-point line, a figure that supports his status as the most influential shooter in the history of the league.
