In the All-Star Weekend final, Nikola Jokić’s team, the Global Stars, lost to Shaquille O’Neal’s team, 41:25. Steph Curry, Irving, Durant, Harden, and others, but without LeBron James who withdrew before the game, played excellently and deserved the win.

Steph Curry was named MVP of the event. He scored 12 points in the final but entertained the crowd with his brilliant moves multiple times.

Four teams participated in the tournament: Shaquille O’Neal’s Original Gangsters, Charles Barkley’s Global Stars, Kenny Smith’s Young Stars, and Candace Parker’s Rising Stars.

In the semifinals, Shaq’s team defeated the Rising Stars 42:35, while Charles’s team beat the Young Stars 41:32.

The Serbian ace finished the final with 2 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists, while the top scorer for the Global Stars was Victor Wembanyama with 11 points and 3 rebounds. Karl-Anthony Towns scored eight, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had four points.

In the winning team, Jayson Tatum scored 15 points, Steph Curry had 12, Kyrie Irving finished with seven, and Jaylen Brown scored four points.

Team Shaq opened the final with an 11-0 run, with eight points from Jayson Tatum. Since the game was played to 40 points, it was already clear who would win.

On the other side, the Serbian ace wasn’t in top form, finishing with just two points and even missing two free throws.

Each player from the winning team earned $125,000, while the losing team members received $50,000 each. Semifinalists received $25,000 just for participating.
