All Star weekend took place this past weekend.The All Star game has been going on in the NBA for over 60 years.this all star weekend was in Toronto and featured exciting events like the Skills Challenge,and the Celebrity Game. The three most popular events the Dunk Contest, The 3 point Shootout and the All Star game itself took place on Sunday. This years Skills Challenge which is a mix of passing and shooting was won by rookie Karl Anthony towns. Last years champion and heavy favorite to win the 3 point shootout Stephen curry was dethroned this year by his teammate Klay Thompson. if you are a true basketball fan you know the dunk contest has recently been declinig as a lot of bigger name athletes choose not to compete in it however the excitement was revised this year.the Orlando Magic's aaron Gordon and the Minnesota Timberwolves Zack lavine battled for the crown as it took them multiple rounds to decide a winner.in the end Aaron Gordon was robbed because he did some of the best dunks i ever saw as he but he didn't win.Zack Lavine won for the second year in a row
