Milwaukee Bucks All-Star Point Guard Damian Lillard He went to the three -point NBA competition, which wants to do some history. No player in NBA history has won even three times in a row All-Star weekend eventsLillard hoped that he would be the first to do it.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t.
Lillard was eliminated in the first round after scoring only 18 points, ending with amazing dominance in the three -point NBA competition. Miami Heat Guard and from Wisconsin, Tyler Herro, eventually won him this year.
Then he did quite blunt, although maybe not a surprising advertisement.
Milwaukee Bucks Star Damian Lillard “withdraws” from the 3-point NBA competition
According to Bucks’ X (previously Twitter) it was the last three -point NBA competition in which Lillard participated. He told the camera crew that he was “officially withdrawn” from participation in the event.

“I left tonight,” said Nine-time All-Star. “Congratulations to Tyler. All good … This will be my last. I retire. Officially retired. “
At the age of 34, Lillard probably still had a few years for the NBA career as a whole. However, it seems that the decision to make the three -point NBA 2025 competition his last was the conclusion he came to before he was eliminated in the opening round on Saturday evening.
Ironically, Lillard turns 38.4% of three this season, which is better than its three -point percentage in each of the last two years, which caused that he won the three -point NBA competition. He scored 37.1% of three in 2022-23 and 35.4% in 2023-24.
And to be forthright, Lillard is not the best three -point scorer in Bucks this season (although he tries the most three -point shot), Taurean Prince (46.2%) and AJ Green (42.7%) belong to Milwaukee players who have a better percentage.
