SAN FRANCISCO – The Miami Heat's Tyler Herro said he was "lucky" as he made both of his three-point bonus balls in the final round and won the three-point contest during All-Star Saturday in San Francisco on Feb. 15.
Earlier in the evening, the Cleveland Cavaliers' duo of Evan Mobley and Donovan Mitchell won the skills challenge.
Herro won the three-point crown with a score of 24 in the final round to get the best of Darius Garland of the Cavaliers, who posted 19, and Buddy Hield of hosts the Golden State Warriors, with 23.
He became the fifth Heat player to win the long-distance shooting competition after James Jones (2011), Daequan Cook (2009), Jason Kapono (2007) and Glen Rice (1995).
